Abarbarea

Ἀβαρβαρέη

(Ἀβαρβαρέη), a Naiad, who bore two sons, Aesepus and Pedasus, to Bucolion, the eldest but illegitimate son of the Trojan King Laomedon. (Hom. Il. 6.22, &c.) Other writers do not mention this nymph, but Hesychius (s. v.) mentions Ἀβαρβαρέαι or Ἀβαρβαλαῖαι as the name of a class of nymphs.
