In Greek mythology, Plouto or Pluto (Ancient Greek: Πλουτώ means 'wealth')^[1] was the mother of Tantalus, usually by Zeus, though the scholion to Euripides' play Orestes 5, names Tmolos as the father.^[2] According to Hyginus, Plouto's father was Himas,^[3] while other sources give her father as Cronus.^[4]
