In Greek mythology, Metope /mɪˈtoʊpiː/ (Ancient Greek: Μετώπη) may refer to the following:

• Metope, the Arcadian naiad daughter of the Potamoi Ladon^[1] and Stymphalis,^[2] thus sister to Daphne. Her waters were near the town of Stymphalus in the Peloponnesus.^[3] She married the river god Asopus by whom she had several (either 12^[4] or 20^[5]) daughters, including Aegina,^[6] Salamis, Thebe, Corcyra, Tanagra, Thespia, Cleone, Sinope, Peirene, Asopis, Ornea, Chalcis, Harpina^[7] and Ismene;^[8] and sons, including Pelagon (Pelasgus) and Ismenus.^[1] The question of the exact parentage of these children of Asopus is very vague.
• Metope, a daughter of the above Asopus in some accounts.^[9]
• Metope, consort of the river god Sangarius. Some say these were the possible parents of Hecuba.^[10] She may be identical or different from the above Metope.
• Metope, an Epirotian princess as the daughter of King Echetus. She had an intrigue with a lover and as a punishment her father mutilated the lover and blinded Metope by piercing her eyes with bronze needles. He then incarcerated her in a tower and gave her grains of bronze, promising that she would regain her sight when she had ground these grains into flour.^[11] Eustathius and the scholia on this passage call the daughter and her lover Amphissa and Aechmodicus respectively.^[12][13]
