Dione is a name shared by several distinct figures in Greek mythology, each associated with different divine or semi-divine roles. The most prominent Dione is a goddess worshipped at Dodona, often described as a Titaness or an Oceanid, and frequently cited as the mother of Aphrodite by Zeus.
Other figures bearing the name include one of the Hyades who nursed the young Dionysus, a daughter of Atlas who married Tantalus, and one of the fifty Nereids. Additionally, a figure named Dione appears in the Phoenician history attributed to Sanchuniathon, where she is associated with the city of Byblos and sometimes identified with the goddess Baalat Gebal or Asherah. The multiplicity of these figures reflects the complex and often overlapping nature of ancient mythological genealogies.
