	Eridanos (mythology) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The river Eridanos (or Eridanus) is an imagined river of Greek mythology whose name has been adopted by paleogeographers to describe the real ice age river that ran where the Baltic Seais now: see Eridanus (geology).
		The Eridanos is mentioned in ancient Greek writings as a river in northern Europe rich in amber.
		Amber originated from the tears of the Heliades shed when their brother, Phaeton, died and fell from the sky and tumbled into the Eridanos (Ovid, Metamorphoses II, 367-380), where, “along the green banks of the river Eridanos,” King Cygnus mourned him and was transformed into a swan.

	Greek Mythology: ERIDANUS ERIDANOS River God of Hyperborea, Constellation River
		ERIDANOS was a River-God of the mythical northern land of Hyperborea.
		The Eridanos was a purely mythical river of the north which was later variously identified with the Istros (Danube) of Hungary and the Po of northern Italy.
		The river may have been named Eridanos (Early Burnt) after the story of Phaethon, the boy who attempted to drive the chariot of the sun, and fell flaming into the waters of this mythical river.

	Europe
		.”The Eridanos is meridian 8°24’E which indicates the direction of the amber route from the western shore of Jutland and the estuary of the Elbe to the heart of Europe which was indicated by the Column of the Sun.
		The term Eridanos refers to a mythical concept, a river of the extreme west; the noun was applied to an infernal river and to real rivers in several parts of the earth.
		But since the Eridanos essentially is a mathematical line, Herodotus (III, 115) doubts its existence, as he doubts the existence of the equatorial Nile, which is a mathematical line to which the River Congo and the estuary Gabon give concrete existence.
