In Greek mythology, Candalus (Ancient Greek: Κάνδαλος Kándalos) was one of the Heliadae, a son of Rhodos and Helios.[1] Candalus, along with his brothers, Triopas, Macar and Actis, were jealous of another brother, Tenages, and so they murdered him. After the murder came to light, Candalus fled Rhodes to Cos.[2]
