In Greek mythology, Deliades (Ancient Greek: Δηλιάδην) was a Boeotian prince as son of King Glaucus of Potniae[1] and possibly, Eurymede or Eurynome,[2] daughter of King Nisus of Megara. He was unintentionally killed by his own brother Bellerophon. According to some traditions, he was called Alcimenes or Peiren.[3]
