Coronis might be related to
There are several characters in Greek mythology by the name Coronis (Κορωνίς, -ίδος "crow" or "raven"). These include: * Coronis, one of the Hyades. * Coronis, daughter of King Coronaeus of Phocis who fled from Poseidon and was changed into a crow by Athena. * Coronis, a Maenad who was raped by Butes of Thrace. Dionysus made the offender throw himself down a well. * Coronis, daughter of Phlegyas, King of the Lapiths, was one of Apollo's lovers. While Apollo was away, Coronis, already pregnant with Asclepius, fell in love with Ischys, son of Elatus. And unknowing to her father warnings, she went against Apollo's words and shared her bed with Ischys before the child was born. A white raven which Apollo had left to guard her informed him of the affair and Apollo, enraged that the bird had not pecked out Ischys' eyes as soon as he approached Coronis, flung a curse upon it so furious that it scorched its feathers, which is why all ravens are black. Apollo sent his sister, Artemis, to kill Coronis because he could not bring himself to. Coronis dies, accepting that her punishment was just, but expresses her sorrow over the untimely death of her unborn child. Afterward Apollo, feeling dejected, only regained his presence of mind when Coronis' body was already aflame on a funeral pyre. He went to her pyre, cut her belly open and rescued the child. One account states that getting a sign from Apollo, Hermes cut the unborn child out of her womb and gave it to the centaur Chiron to raise. Hermes then brought her soul to Tartarus. * Coronis, one of the sacrificial victims of Minotaur. * A vessel with raised ends, like a crescent.
