StheneboeaAnteia

A queen of Argos; the wife of Proetus and noted for her role in the banishment of Bellerophontes (Bellerophon).

Stheneboea tried to seduce Bellerophontes and when he refused her advances, she lied to her husband who tried and failed to have Bellerophontes killed; in The Iliad of Homer (book 6, line 150+) she is called Anteia but later versions of the story give her name as Stheneboea; her father was the ruler of Lykia (Lycia) and is not named in The Iliad but in later times he was called Iobates.
