__NOTOC__ In Greek mythology, Graecus (; ) was the son of Zeus and Pandora, daughter of Deucalion, and the eponym of the Graecians.
According to the Byzantine author John the Lydian (c. AD 490 – 565), Hesiod, in his Catalogue of Women, states that Graecus is the son of Zeus and Pandora, daughter of Deucalion and Pyrrha, and says, in addition, that he has a brother, Latinus. The Byzantine author Stephanus of Byzantium (fl. 6th century AD) states that Graecus was a son of Thessalus.
