Thasus

In Greek mythology, Thasus (/ˈθeɪsəs/ or /ˈθeɪzəs/) was a son of Poseidon^[1] (or, in other versions, Cilix^[2] or Agenor^[3][4]). In the stories, he was one of those who set out from Phoenicia in search of Europa, and "founded" the eponymous town of Thasos on the island of the same name.^[3][5]
