In Greek mythology, Metiadusa (Ancient Greek: Μητιάδουσα) was a member of the Athenian royal family as the daughter of Prince Eupalamus and possibly Alcippe.[1] She was probably the sister of Daedalus[2] and Perdix.[3] Metiadusa married King Cecrops II of Athens and became the mother of Pandion.[4]
