EPAPHUS

In Greek mythology, 'Epaphus', also called Apis, is the son of Zeus and Io and a king of Egypt.
He was born in Euboea (Herodotus, Strabo) or, according others, in Egypt. Epaphus is regarded in the myths as the founder of Memphis, Egypt. With his wife, Memphis, he had one daughter, Libya.
Epaphus also criticized Phaëton's heraldry, which prompted him to undertake his fateful journey in his father Phoebus' chariot of the sun.
Belus, another mythological king of Egypt, is a grandson of Epaphus.
