In Greek mythology, Ctesimache (Ancient Greek: Κτησιμάχης Ktesimache) was one of the possible mothers of Meges, one of the Achaean Leaders, by King Phyleus of Dulichium,[1] the son of King Augeas of Elis. Otherwise, she was called either Ctemene,[2] Agnete,[3] Eustyoche[4] or Timandra.[5]
Ctesimache is more likely a variation of Ctimene only. She might be the mother of Phyleus’ daughter Eurydameia who begot Euchenor and Cleitus by the seer Polyeidus.[6]
