In [[Greek mythology]], '''Tithonos'''{{Pronunciation-needed}} (Τιθωνός) was a son of [[Eos]] and [[Cephalus]]. The name of Eos' lover, [[Tithonus]], is also sometimes spelled Tithonos. He is mentioned in Book Eleven of [[The Iliad]] as "the haughty Tithonos," by whom Eos slept (Richard Lattimore translation). In this instance, he is most likely Eos's lover and not her son. He is also mentioned in Book Five of [[The Odyssey]] as a lord, and Eos his lady.
