Deiopea, one of Juno's fourteen nymphs. She is described in the Virgil's Aeneid as being praestanti corpore, i.e., having an excellent body. Juno promises her in marriage to the king of the winds, Aeolus, in return for his help in shipwrecking the Trojan refugees.[4][5][6] The asteroid 184 Dejopeja is named after her.[7]
