Harpe (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Harpe (Ancient Greek: Ἄρπη, romanized: Harpe, lit.'snatcher') is a minor figure and the wife of a rich Babylonian man named Clinis, and the mother by him of Lycius, Ortygius, Harpasus and Artemiche. Her family venerated Apollo greatly, until they angered him gravely, thereupon he punished them all, but Poseidon spared Harpe by turning her into a bird.
