Kyparissos (mytológia)

Kyparissos, autor:Jacopo Vignali, (1592 - 1664)

Kyparissos (starogr. ΚυπάρισσοςKyparissos, lat. Cyparissus) je v gréckej mytológii mladík z ostrova Keós, priateľ boha Apolóna.[1]

Kyparissos bol veľmi krásny mladík, ktorého si obľúbil boh Apolón. Žil na ostrove Keós a jeho najmilším druhom bol obrovský jeleň, zasvätený nymfám, ktorému pri prechádzkach na lúkach hral na lýre a vodil ho k prameňom.[2][1]

Raz si ho v horúci letný deň pomýlil na poľovačke s divým jeleňom a zabil ho oštepom.[2] Zo žiaľu sa rozhodol vziať si život a prosil boha Apolóna, aby naveky smel po svojom miláčikovi smútiť.[2] Apolón jeho prosbe vyhovel a premenil ho na štíhli strom (cyprus), ktorý rastie v Grécku všade tam, kde niekto trúchli.[2][1]

Z gréckeho slova "kyparissos" pochádza aj naše pomenovanie stromu cyprus. V Grécku, ale aj inde v Stredomorí sa cyprusy sadia na cintoríny dodnes.[1]
