	Tydeus 2, Greek Mythology Link - www.maicar.com
		Tydeus 2's father was King Oeneus 2 of Calydon, the man who assembled the CALYDONIAN HUNTERS in order to have corrected through them his own negligence towards a goddess; but it is uncertain who his mother was.
		In this manner, Tydeus 2 married Adrastus 1's daughter Deipyle, and engaged himself in the army of the SEVEN AGAINST THEBES.
