Greek Wife of Amphiaraus mother of
Alcmaeon, sister of Adrastus. Eriphyle was given the
magic necklace of Harmonia, a guarantee of unfading
beauty, for persuading her husband, Amphiaraus, and
her brother, Adrastus, to join in the disastrous rebellion
known as the Seven Against Thebes. Alcmaeon
killed Eriphyle but his mother's dying curse was that
no land would ever shelter her son.
