Cleta
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the genus of moths, see Cleta (moth).
In Greek mythology, Cleta (/ˈkliːtə/ ; Ancient Greek: Κλήτα, romanized: Klḗtā means 'the glorious'[citation needed ]) was one of the Charites (Graces).
The Lakedaemonians say that the Charites are the two who gave them the names of Cleta and Phaenna.[1] Her name means "renowned".[2]
