It is relatively isolated from other named craters, although it is located just over one crater diameter to the south southeast of the huge walled plain Landau crater Landau . To the southwest of Leucippus is the larger satellite crater Leucippus Q. The rim of Leucippus is eroded, with a smaller crater laid across the southern end. A small craterlet lies along the western inner wall. The edge and inner wall is generally lacking in detail, forming a relatively smooth, gentle slope down to the interior floor. This interior is offset slightly to the southeast, where the inner wall is narrower. The floor is about half the diameter of the crater. There is a small craterlet on the floor along the southern edge, and a few tiny craterlets mark the otherwise relatively level surface. Satellite craters By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater mid point that is closest to Leucippus. class wikitable width 25 style background eeeeee Leucippus width 25 style background eeeeee Latitude width 25 style background eeeeee Longitude width 25 style background eeeeee Diameter align center F align center 29.1 N align center 113.0 W align center 19 km align center K align center 27.2 N align center 115.0 W align center 14 km align center Q align center 25.9 N align center 118.8 W align center 84 km align center X align center 33.4 N align center 118.8 W align center 36 km References Lunar crater references Category Impact craters on the Moon Moon crater stub fa ... more details

The passion turned out too strong for him to suppress, so he addressed his mother, imploring her to help him and threatening that he would kill himself if she didn t. She united the girl to Leucippus, and they consorted for a while. But the girl was already betrothed to another man, to whom someone reported the matter. The groom went on to inform Xanthius, without telling him the name of the seducer. Xanthius went straight to his daughter s chamber, where she was together with Leucippus right at the moment. On hearing him enter, she tried to escape, but Xanthius hit her with a dagger, thinking that he was slaying the seducer, and killed her. Leucippus, failing to recognize his father at first, slew him.

In Greek mythology , Perieres polytonic was a king of Messene , an ancient polis in southern Peloponnese . His parentage and offspring varies across ancient authors in most sources, however, he was a son of Aeolus and Enarete , and husband of Gorgophone , daughter of Perseus .

Apollodorus in his Bibliotheke mentions two different versions of Perieres lineage, without deciding between them he could be a son of Cynortas , husband of Gorgophone and father of Tyndareus, Icarius, Aphareus and Leucippus , or he could be a son of Aeolus and father of only two sons by Gorgophone, Aphareus and Leucippus. In this case Tyndareus and Icarius, along with Hippocoon and Arene , would be sons of Oebalus, son of another Perieres, son of Cynortas, their mother being the nymph Batea ref Pseudo Apollodorus, Bibliotheke , III, 10. ref . Finally, according to Pausanias Gorgophone, the daughter of Perseus, was one of the first women who married twice ref Pausanias, Description of Greece , 2. 15 28 ref .

After Perieres death she married Oebalus, king of Sparta, son of Cynortas, and had by him Tyndareus, Icarius and Arene, who in turn married Aphareus, his half brother.

Democrates lang el a Pythagoreanism Pythagorean philosopher, concerning whom little is known. A collection of moral maxim philosophy maxims , called the Golden Sentences lang el has come down to us under his name. They are written in the Ionic Greek Ionic dialect, from which some writers have inferred, that they were written at a very early period, whereas others think it more probable that they are the production of the age of Julius Caesar. But nothing can be said with certainty, for want of both external and internal evidence. Some of these sentences are quoted by Stobaeus , and are found in some manuscripts under the name of Democritus . Apollonius of Tyana wrote at least one letter to a Democrates, Epistle 88 . It is possible that the sayings of Democrates all came from an original collection of sayings of Democritus, but other scholars believe that there was a different unknown Democrates whose name became confused with the better known Democritus the Democrates sayings show little sign of Democritean technical vocabulary. ref Taylor, C., The Atomists, Leucippus and Democritus Fragments a Text and Translation .
