Hypere'nor

Ὑπερήνωρ), one of the Spartae, or the men that grew up from the dragon's teeth sown by Cadmus, was worshipped as a hero at Thebes. (Apollod. 3.4.1; Paus. 9.5.1; Hyg. Fab. 178.) There are two other mythical personages of this name, one a son of Poseidon and Alcyone (Apollod. 3.10.1), and the other a son of the Trojan Panthous, who was slain by Menelaus. (Hom. Il. 14.516, 17.24.)
