Echo (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Ekho (Greek: Ἠχώ, Ēkhō, "echo", from ἦχος (ēchos), "sound") was an Oread (a mountain nymph) who loved her own voice. Zeus loved consorting with beautiful nymphs and visited them on Earth often. Eventually, Zeus's wife, Hera, became suspicious, and came from Mt. Olympus in an attempt to catch Zeus with the nymphs.
