Thyia of Thessaly

In Greek mythology, Thyia (/ˈθə/; Ancient Greek: Θυία Thuia derived from the verb θύω "to sacrifice")[citation needed] was the daughter of Deucalion. Thyia bore to Zeus two sons, Magnes and Makednos, the latter of whom was considered the eponym of Macedonia.[1] This genealogy comes from Hesiod's lost work, the Catalogue of Women, as preserved in the De Thematibus of Constantine Porphyrogenitus.[2]
