• Source: Evander (mythology)

In Greek and Roman mythology, Evander (Ancient Greek: Εὔανδρος Euandros means "abounding in good men and true") may refer to three distinct characters:

Evander, a Lycian king who succeeded his father Sarpedon, son of Zeus and Europa, in the kingship of Lycia. He married Deidamia, daughter of Bellerophon, and had by her a son Sarpedon.
Evander, a Trojan prince as the bastard son of King Priam of Troy by an unknown concubine.
Evander of Pallantium, the wisest among the Arcadians, emigrated to Italy where he founded a city Pallantium. He was the son of Hermes and Carmentis, a nymph skilled in the art of divination.
