MYRTILUS
Mercurii ex Phaetusa, seu Myrto Amazone fil. auriga Oenomai,qui a Pelope curuli certamine cum Oenomao certaturo pollicitis corruptus, axi vectem non obiecit, ut eâ ratione Oenomai currus dissolveretur, et Pelops victor evaderet. Quae res cum Pelopi ex sententiâ successit, Oenomaus curru delapsus, cervicem fregit, iamque animan agens Pelopem obsecravit, ut vicem suam ulcisceretur. Quare cum pactum sibi perfidiae praemium a Pelope reposceret, ab eo in mare proiectus est, quod indo Myrtoum appellatur. Ovid. in Ibin, v. 369.
Proditor ut saevi periit auriga tyranni,
Qui nova Myrtoae nomina fecit aquae.

Hofmann J. Lexicon universale. 1698.
