430 PRIMITIVE HISTORY OF THE lONIANS. 



who married Phoebe, daughter of Tyndareus, and Sthenelus -whoee 

 wife is improperly called a daughter of Danaus, unless the latter 

 name has been made to do double duty, and to represent Jonathan 

 in the Tan-cheres form as well as Othniel himself. I have already 

 supposed it possible that Othniel was a son-in-law of Ahban, and it 

 seems hardly likely that he married two princesses of the same line, 

 one of whom was a generation later than the other. The weight of 

 evidence seems to be on the side of Jonathan, but I find it as yet 

 impossible to decide. 



In the following Tables the gods and heroes with whom the families 

 of Onam seem to be identified, are first given, and then the localities 

 named after them. Let it be remembered that nothing could be more 

 unreasonable than to expect in so full a genealogy as that of Onam, 

 complete agreement with the imperfect Greek records, preserved as 

 these have been by so many difierent hands, and intentionally cor- 

 rupted, as must necessarily be the case in all such records, either 

 to gratify national and individual vanity or to agree with various 

 mythological theories : —
