It is Niobe. She boasted of her 14 children to Leto, the mother of only two children, Artemis and Apollo. Leto felt humiliated so Artemis and Apollo killed all of Niobe's children. A devastated Niobe fled to Mount Sipylus and was turned into stone and, as she wept unceasingly, waters started to pour from her petrified complexion. Mount Sipylus indeed has a natural rock formation which resembles a female face, and it has been associated with Niobe since ancient times. The rock formation is also known as the "Weeping Rock", since rainwater seeps through its limestone pores.
