Theobule
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Template:Short description In Greek mythology, the name Theobule (Template:Langx from Script error: No such module "Lang". + Script error: No such module "Lang".[1] 'divine will' or 'divine counsel') refers to:
- Theobule, mother of Myrtilus by Hermes.[2]
- Theobula, mother of Arcesilaus and Prothoenor by Areilycus[3] (Archilycus[4]). Their son was one of the Boeotian leaders in the Trojan War. In one account, Alector was the father of Arcesilaus by Cleobule and Prothoenor by Arteis.[5]
This name was also thought to have given rise to Sibyl by Varro, a Roman man of letters.[1] The historian Jerome similarly explained Theobule as the Attic form of the Doric Script error: No such module "Lang". (Siobolla), a variant of Sibulla (Sibyl in Greek)[6]
