Endeïs

In Greek mythology, Queen Endeïs (/ɛnˈdiːɪs/; Ancient Greek: Ενδηίς or Ενδαΐς) was the wife of King Aeacus and mother of the heroes Telamon and Peleus (since Peleus was the father of Achilles and Telamon was the father of Ajax the Great and Teucer, Endeïs was the grandmother of Achilles, Ajax and Teucer). The name is a dialect variant of Engaios (Ἐγγαῖος, "in the earth").
