Amphirho

In Greek mythology, Amphirho (Ancient Greek: Ἀμφιρὼ or Αμφιρω Amphirô) was an Oceanid, one of the 3,000 daughters of the Titans of the sea, Oceanus and Tethys.[1][2][3][4] Amphirho had also the same parentage with that of the river-gods. Her name may probably mean "surrounding-river" from amphi and rhoos.[5]
