Wife of Phoenix
There was another Cassiopeia in Greek mythology; her name is also given as "Cassiepeia"; according to Hesiod, this Cassiopeia was the wife of King Phoenix. She is given as the mother of the hero Atymnius, by either her husband or the god Zeus. Other accounts also claim she was the mother, by Phoenix, of Phineus and Carme, although the latter is more often said to be a daughter of Eubuleus, a Cretan.
