Amphi'stratus(Ἀμφίστρατος) and his brother
Rhecas were the charioteers of the Dioscuri. They were believed to have taken part in the
expedition of Jason to Colchis, and to have occupied a part of that country which was called
after them Heniochia, as ἡνίοχος signifies a charioteer.
(Strab. xi. p.495; Just. 42.3.)
Pliny (Plin. Nat. 6.5) calls them Amphitus and Thelchius.
