1st_ Daphne (original 916; 945; 966; 957; 951; "laurel") was a nymph from Greek mythology pursued by the god Apollo, who fell in love with her because Eros bewitched him with a golden arrow, while with it she used a lead arrow to make her despise him. When Daphne was cornered, she asked her father, the river god, for help, who turned her into a laurel plant. Since then it is sacred in the cult of Apollo, and the crown made with its leaves (laureola) is a symbol of honor and triumph. 2º_ Name of woman, originated in the previous legend. See Laura.
