Ροδόπη (EL)
Rhodope (EN)

Η Ροδόπη ήταν κόρη του ποταμού Στρυμόνα. Με τον Ποσειδώνα απέκτησε τον Άθω ή κατ’ άλλη μυθογραφική παράδοση με τον θεό Απόλλωνα τον Κίκονα, επώνυμο ήρωα της θρακικής φυλής των Κικόνων. Σύμφωνα με τον Ψευδο-Πλούταρχο, υπήρξε αδελφή και σύζυγος του Αίμου. Η Ροδόπη και ο Αίμος ερωτεύθηκαν μεταξύ τους σε τέτοιο βαθμό που συνέκριναν τους εαυτούς τους με την Ήρα και τον Δία. Οι θεοί οργίστηκαν μαζί τους και τους μεταμόρφωσαν στις οροσειρές της Ροδόπης και του Αίμου, αντίστοιχα. Ο Σέρβιος αναφέρει ότι η Ροδόπη απέκτησε με τον Αίμο τον Έβρο, από τον οποίο πήρε το όνομά του ο ποταμός της Θράκης. (EL)
Rhodope was the daughter of the river-god Strymon and the mother (by Poseidon) of Athos;  elsewhere, of Cicon (by Apollo), the eponymous hero of the Thracian Cicones. In Pseudo-Plutarch Rhodope is the sister and wife of Haemus. Their love for each other was so great that they likened themselves to Hera and Zeus, who punished them for this insolence by turning them into mountains. Servius says that Rhodope and Haemus had a son, Hebrus, from whom the Thracian river took its name.. (EN)
