In Greek mythology, Neonus (Ancient Greek: Νεώνου, romanized: Neōnos or Néonos, lit. 'new' or 'young'[1]) was a Phthian prince as the son of King Hellen of Thessaly, the son of Deucalion, the Hellenic progenitor.[2] His mother was possibly the nymph Orseis (Othreis[3]), and thus he was probably the brother to Aeolus, Dorus, Xuthus and Xenopatra.[4] Neonus was the father of Dotus, eponym of Dotium in Thessaly.[2]
