In Greek mythology, Haemon (/ˈhiːmɒn/; Ancient Greek: Αἵμων, romanized: Haímōn, lit. 'bloody'; gen.: Αἵμωνος) was the son of Creon and Eurydice, and thus brother of Menoeceus (Megareus), Lycomedes, Megara, Pyrrha and Henioche. The various sources of his myth present differing and contradictory versions of his story.
