Cilix - Mythology. Greek Son of Agenor and Telephassa, brother of Cadmus, Europa, and Phoenix. When Zeus stole Europa, King Agenor sent his three sons to search for her. The brothers could not find her, and not daring to return to their father, settled down elsewhere. Cilix is said to have founded the nation of the Cilicians, an ancient region of southeast Asia Minor. Modern Cilicia is an area of southern Turkey lying between the Mediterranean Sea and the Taurus Mountains.
