Side (wife of Orion)

This article is about the wife of Orion. For other uses, see Side (mythology).

In ancient Greek and Roman mythology, Side is a little-known figure, the first wife of the great hunter Orion. Side challenged the goddess Hera in beauty so her punishment was to be thrown into Hades, the Underworld. Side's myth is only attested in the Bibliotheca, a compilation of Greek myths by pseudo-Apollodorus, a Greek writer of the second century.
