In Greek mythology, Queen [[Arete]] (/əˈriːtiː/; Ancient Greek: [[Ἀρήτη]] means "she who is prayed for") of Scheria was the wife of [[Alcinous]] and mother of [[Nausicaa]] and [[Laodamas]]. | |wketx=In Greek mythology, Queen [[Arete]] (/əˈriːtiː/; Ancient Greek: [[Ἀρήτη]] means "she who is prayed for") of Scheria was the wife of [[Alcinous]] and mother of [[Nausicaa]] and [[Laodamas]]. | ||
Arete was the daughter of [[Rhexenor]]. She was a descendant of Poseidon, who, making love to Periboea, begot Nausithous, who in turn had two sons, Rhexenor, her father and Alcinous, her uncle and later on, her husband. Her name appears to be associated with the Ionic noun ἀρητή, meaning "sacred", "cursed" or "prayed." Some sources claim that it means "righteous", while others connect it with Ares, the Greek god of war. | Arete was the daughter of [[Rhexenor]].
