In Greek mythology Azan (Greek: Ἀζᾶν) was the son of Arcas and the Dryad Erato brother of Apheidas Elatus and Hyperippe. Azania in Arcadia was named after him. He married Hippolyte daughter of Dexamenus and had a son Cleitor. When Azan died the first funeral games in history were held in his honor. It was at these games that Aetolus accidentally killed Apis.
