In Greek mythology the name Anthus (Ἄνθος flower) may refer to:Anthus a son of Autonous and Hippodamia. His brothers were Erodius Schoenous and Acanthus and his sister was Acanthis. Once he drove his father’s horses away from the grassy meadows where they had been pastured by his brother Erodius. Out of hunger the horses attacked Anthus and devoured him; his father was in shock and could not help while his mother tried to save him but failed because of her physical weakness.
