Mneme

Mneme

(Μνήμη), i. e. memory, was one of the three Muses that were in early times worshipped at Ascra in Boeotia. (Paus. 9.29.2.) But there seems to have also been a tradition that Mneme was the mother of the Muses, for Ovid (Ov. Met. 5.268) calls them Mnemonides; unless this be only an abridged form for the daughters of Mnemosyne. [Comp. Musae.] [L.S]
