Helejade

Helejade () u grčkoj mitologiji bili su sedam Helijevih i Rodinih sinova, unuci Posejdona. Bili su Elektrionina braća.

Biografija Bili su to Ohim, Kerkaf, Makarej (ili Makar), Aktis, Tenages, Triopas i KandalusDiodorus Siculus, 5.56.5 (NonnusNonnus, Dionysiaca 14.44 dodaje Augesa i Trinaksa). Bili su stručni astrolozi i pomorci, i prvi su uveli žrtvu Ateni na Rodosu.Diodorus Siculus, 5.57.1; Pindar, Olympian Odes 7.3 Takođe su oterali Telčine sa Rodosu.

Mitologija Tenages je bio najsposobniji od svih Helejada, a na kraju su ga ubili Makarej, Kandalus, Triopas i Aktis. To se pripisuje njihovoj ljubomori na njegove naučne vještine. Čim je njihov zločin otkriven, njih četvorica su morala pobjeći s Rodosa: Makarej je pobjegao na Lezbos, Kandal na Kos, Triopas u Kariju, a Aktis u Egipat.Diodorus Siculus, 5.57.2 Ohim i Kerkaf, koji su ostali po strani od zločina, ostali su na ostrvu i osnovali grad Ahaju (na teritoriji današnjeg Jalisosa).Diodorus Siculus, 5.57.6 Ohim, najstariji od braće, preuzeo je kontrolu nad ostrvom; Kerkaf se oženio Ohimovom kćerkom Kidipom i naslijedio vlast. Tri sina Kerkafa, Lind, Jalis i Kamir, bili su osnivači i eponimi gradova Lindos, Jalisos i Kamiros, respektivno.Pindar, Olympian Odes 7.3 ff.
