   • c. 1st century BCE or CE, Hyginus mythographus, Fabulae CXCV. ORION:

     Mercurius de tauro quem Hyrieus ipsis immolarat corium protulit; illi in eum urinam fecerunt et in terram obruerunt, unde natus est Orion.

     Mercury brought out the hide of the bull which Hyrieus had sacrificed to them; they urinated on it and buried it underground, whence was born Orion.

   • c. 1st century BCE or CE, Hyginus mythographus, De Astronomia II.XXXIV:

     Aristomachus autem dicit quemdam Hyriea fuisse Thebis, Pindarus autem in insula Chio. […] Ex quo postea natum puerum, quem Hyrieus e facto Uriona appellaret. Sed venustate et consuetudine factum est, ut Orion vocaretur.

     Aristomachus says that there lived a certain Hyrieus at Thebes; Pindar puts him on the island of Chios. […] From this, later on, a child was born whom Hyrieus called Urion from the happening, though on account of his charm and affability he came to be called Orion.

     “From this” (Ex quo) refers to the event mentioned in the fabulae cxcv. orion quotation (which see above).

   • 8 CE, Ovid, Fasti 5.499–503:

     Forte senex Hyrieus, angusti cultor agelli,
     hos videt, exiguam stabat ut ante casam,
     atque ita 'longa via est, nec tempora longa supersunt',
     dixit 'et hospitibus ianua nostra patet.'

     By chance, an old man, Hyrieus, farmer of a tiny plot,
     saw them, as he stood in front of his meagre dwelling:
     and spoke to them: ‘The way’s long, little of day is left,
     and my threshold’s welcoming to strangers.’
