Orchamus was a king in Greek mythology. He had two daughters: Leucothea and Clytia. Leucothea was raped by Helios the sun god. Helios disguised himself as Leucothea’s mother Euronome to gain entrance to her chambers. Clytia jealous of her sister because she wanted Helios for herself told Orchamus the truth betraying her sister’s trust and confidence in her. Enraged Orchamus ordered Leucothea buried alive.
