[edit]

This article gives two versions of the story of Herse and Aglaulus throwing themselves off a cliff; that's fine--mythology comes in lots of versions. But then it says Aglaulus was turned to stone, and then it says she sacrificed herself, and then it says she had a kid by Hermes (who in one version turned her to stone not long after meeting her). I'm guessing that these are all just different versions of the story of Aglaulus, but the phrasing that indicates that they're different versions breaks down/disappears halfway through the article. And I don't know enough about the various versions to be sure which details belong to which version. So the article needs some cleanup--probably just a matter of throwing in "according to yet another version of the story" two or three more times, but I'm not sure. --Elysdir 17:27, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Aglaulus? Is it not Aglaura? See Athena#Aglaura. --Mykolas OK

One of these is the mother of Alcippe (the father is Ares), but which one?
