Abstract:The myths of four Athenian autochthonous kings (Kekrops, Kranaus, Erichthonius, Erechtheus) share a story pattern. The royal line extends only to the third generation and not always so far. The gene of autochthony does not persist beyond the second generation. The "speaking names" of the kings' wives and children overdetermine this pattern. Lévi-Strauss' notion of the affirmation and denial of their autochthony by the same people applies to these myths and is played out in fifth- and fourth-century Athens, when "autochthonous" may mean either "born from the earth" or simply "indigenous."
