In Greek mythology, Cisus, (or Ceisus), son of Temenus, was a king of Argos.

Temenus had initially left his kingdom to his son in law, Deiphontes, despite having natural sons of his own. As a result, Deiphontes was slain through the stratagems of the sons of Temenus. The eldest son, Cisus, succeeded him and took possession of the kingdom.
