Mermerus and Pheres

In Greek mythology, Mermerus (Ancient Greek: Μέρμερος, Mérmeros; Latin: Mermerus) and Pheres (Ancient Greek: Φέρης, Phéres, modern pronunciation Féris; Latin: Pheres) were the sons of Jason and Medea. They were killed either by the Corinthians^[1] or by Medea,^[2] for reasons that vary depending on the rendition. In one account, Mermerus was killed by a lioness while hunting.^[3]
