In Greek mythology, Diochthondas (Ancient Greek: Διοχθώνδας) was a Minyan prince as the son of King Minyas of Orchomenus[1] probably either by Euryale, Clytodora, or Phanosyra, daughter of Paeon. His possible siblings were Clymene, Periclymene,[2] Eteoclymene,[3] Orchomenus, Presbon, Athamas,[4] Elara,[5] Persephone[6] and the Minyades.[7]
