Eury'tion

2. A centaur who took to flight during the fight of Heracles with the centaurs; but he was afterwards killed by Heracles in the dominions of Dexamenus, whose daughter Eurytion was on the point of making his wife. (Apollod. 2.5.4, &c.; comp. Diod. 4.33; Hyg. Fab. 31.) Two other mythical personages of this name are mentioned by Apollodorus (2.5.10) and Virgil. (Aen. 5.495, &c.)
