Biton in Harpers Dictionary of Classical Antiquities (1898)

（Βίτων) and Cleŏbis (Κλέοβις). The sons of Cydippé, a priestess of Heré at Argos. They were celebrated for their affection for their mother, whose chariot they once dragged during a festival to the Temple of Heré, a distance of forty-five stadia. The priestess prayed to the goddess to grant them what was best for mortals, and during the night they both died while asleep in the temple. (Herod.i. 31; Val. Max. v. 4; Tusc. Disp. i. 47).
