In Greek mythology, Neonus (Ancient Greek: Νεώνου) was a Phthian prince as the son of King Hellen of Thessaly, the son of Deucalion, the Hellenic progenitor.[1] His mother was possibly the nymph Orseis (Othreis[2]), and thus probably the brother to Aeolus, Dorus, Xuthus and Xenopatra.[3] Neonus was the father of Dotus, eponym of Dotium in Thessaly.[1]
