Greek Mythology > People, Places, & Things > Iobates
The lord of Lykia (Lycia).
Iobates was the father of Anteia and, according to later writers, he was responsible for trying to send Bellerophontes (Bellerophon) to his death by variously asking him to fight the Khimera (Chimera), the fierce Solymi warriors, the Amazons and finally, trying to kill Bellerophontes in an ambush; having failed to kill the noble Bellerophontes, Iobates gave the hero his daughter in marriage.
