Packet D: Bonus 4

Peculiarly, this mortal woman’s name may derive from the same root as the Proto-Indo-European deity *Dʰéǵʰōm (“day-gome”), from whom we also get the earth goddesses Gaia and Prithvi. For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this woman who gains the name Thyone after she is rescued from the underworld by her “twice-born” son. In one legend, she becomes pregnant after her lover gives her his torn-up heart to drink.
ANSWER: Semele [or Stimula] (The son is Dionysus.)
[10m] Some linguists believe the name Semele may originate from the language of this non-Phrygian region. Notable kings from this region include Tereus, the husband of Procne, and Diomedes.
ANSWER: Thrace [or Thracia; or Thrakē]
[10e] Pausanias relates another tale of Semele and Dionysus that sees them set adrift in a chest in a manner akin to that of Danae and this son of hers. This early Greek hero rescued Andromeda from Cetus.
ANSWER: Perseus
