Tenes

or Tennes (Τήννης). Son of Cycnus and Proclea, and brother of Hemithea. Cycnus was king of Colonae in Troas. His second wife was Philonomé, who fell in love with her step-son; but as he repulsed her advances she accused him to his father, who put both his son and daughter into a chest and threw them into the sea. But the chest was driven on the coast of the island of Leucophrys, of which the inhabitants elected Tenes king, and which he called Tenedos, after his own name (Pausan. x. 14, 2; Diod. v. 83).
