(), a son of Phoroneus, and king of Megara, from whom
the acropolis of this town derived its name Caria. (Paus.

Pausanias, on the road from Megara to Corinth. (1.44.9.) Another mythical personage of the
name of Car, who was a brother of Lydus and Mysus, and was regarded as the ancestral hero of
the Carians, is mentioned by Herodotus. (1.171.)
