Dans la mythologie grecque, Adonis (en grec ancien Ἄδωνις / Ádônis) est le fils de Cinyras et de sa fille Myrrha. Il existe plusieurs versions sur l'identité de ses parents, d'après Apollodore, il est le fils de Cinyras et de Métharmé, d'après Hésiode, cité par Apollodore (III, 14, 4), il est le fils de Phoenix et Alphésibée. Adonis est un humain, amant d'Aphrodite, Il est associé à la rose et au myrte. Adonis est une divinité d'origine orientale, dont le nom est certainement sémitique, la racine « Adon » signifiant « seigneur ». Il apparaît en Orient, avec le même mythe à peu de détails près, sous les noms de Tammouz ou de Thamous.
