Mythology
According to
Harpies.[2]
The names of Thaumas' Harpy daughters vary. Hesiod and
Fabulae Preface has the Harpies, Celaeno, Ocypete, and Podarce, as daughters of Thaumas and Electra, at Fabulae 14.18, the Harpies are said to be named Aellopous, Celaeno, and Ocypete, and are the daughters of Thaumas and Ozomene.[4]
The late 4th-early 5th century poet Nonnus gives Thaumas and Electra two children, Iris, and the river Hydaspes.[5]
Plato associates Thaumas' name with θαῦμα ("wonder").[6]
Thaumas was also the name of a
Centauromachy.[7]
