The name of a princess of the city of Tyre; her name was originally Elissa.
Dido was the daughter of king Matgenos and the brother of Pygmalion; she married her uncle, Sychaeus, but he was murdered by Pygmalion; she took Sychaeus’ fortune and fled to northern Africa and founded the city of Carthage; the African king, Iarbas, wanted to marry Dido but she burned herself on a pyre rather than become his bride.
