Apollo was never married, but he did have liaisons with numerous

mortal and immortal women (and mortal men).

His female loved ones (and their children by him) were:

- Daphne, an nymph, who, after being shot by Eros with a leaden arrow,

hated the very idea of love, prayed to saved from Apollo and turned

into a tree before he could reach her;

- Leucothea, a mortal princess, whose love affair was betrayed to her father

by her own sister, Clytia;

- Marpessa, a mortal woman, who, when Zeus made her choose between

Apollo and and a mortal, Idas, chose Idas she knew Apollo would

grow tired of her when she grew old;

- Castalia, a nymph, who fled from him and dove in a pool

which was later named after her;

- Cyrene, mother of Aristaeus, who became the patron deity

of cattle, fruit trees, hunting and bee-keeping;

- Hecuba, queen of Troy and mother of Troilus;

- Cassandra, Trojan princess, whom he promised the gift of prophecy

if she would be his lover, but who later rejected him and was cursed

to always see future tragedies and never be believed;

- Coronis, Lapithian princess and mother of Asclepius,

the future god of medicine and healing;

- Creusa, mother of Ion, priest of Apollo (in Euripides' play Ion);

- Acantha, the spirit of the acanthus tree;

- Thalia, Muse and mother of the Corybantes (according to the Biblioteca,

a summary of Greek mythology).
