"He [Euxantios king of Keos (Ceos) and son of Minos and Dexithea, the daughter of one of the Telkhines (Telchines)] declared to them [the sons of Minos and Pasiphae] the marvel that had once befallen him :--‘Know ye that I fear war with Zeus, I fear the loudly thundering Shaker of the earth [Poseidon]. They, on a day, with thunderbolt and trident, sent the land and a countless host [presumably the Telkhines] into the depths of Tartaros, while they left alone my mother [Dexithea daughter of one of the Telkhines], and her well-walled home.’ -Pindar, Paean
"and by Dexithea he had Euxanthius"-Apollodorus, Library (Apollod.)
"on the third day warlike Minos came with a host of Cretans [115] in fifty ships with flashing sterns. And by the will of Zeus Eukleios he subdued the deep-waisted maiden Dexithea, and left with her half of his people,
battle-loving men, to whom he gave the craggy land as their share; and then he sailed off to the lovely city of Knossos, the king, the son of Europa. And in the tenth month the bride with beautiful hair bore [125] Euxantius, to be ruler over the glorious island" -Bacchylides, Epinician Odes (B.) ariadne:
