Antiope (Ἀντιόπη) means "confronting, facing." **Amazon queen, sister of Hippolyta** — depending on tradition, **Theseus either abducted her on his journey with Heracles to obtain Hippolyta's belt, or she fell in love with him willingly**. **She bore Theseus a son, Hippolytus, and died defending Athens against the invading Amazons** who came to reclaim her. **Subject of Aeschylus's lost play *Amazons* and central figure of the Centauromachy frieze on the Parthenon's metopes**. **Wonder Woman's mother in DC Comics is named for her** — played by Robin Wright in the 2017 film.
Featured in Plutarch's *Life of Theseus*.
Antiope reduces to four — the number of Amazon queen.
