| | Niobe |
 | | Niobe and Amphion had fourteen children (the Niobids), and in a moment of arrogance, Niobe bragged about her seven sons and seven daughters at a ceremony in honor of Leto, the daughter of the titans Coeus and Phoebe. | | | Clearly, the myth of Niobe demonstrates the wrath of both Apollo and Artemis and is a warning to mortals not to compare themselves to the gods. | | | She was the daughter of Tantalus and either Euryanassa, Eurythemista, Clytia, or Dione (no one seems to know for sure) and had two brothers, Broteas and Pelops. |

| | Niobe - Psychology Central |
| | Priam is like Niobe in that he is grieving for his son Hector, who was killed and not buried for several days. | | | A mortal woman in Greek mythology, Niobe (Νιόβη), daughter of Tantalus and either Euryanassa, Eurythemista, Clytia, Dione, or Laodice, and the wife of Amphion, boasted of her superiority to Leto because she had fourteen children (Niobids), seven male and seven female, while Leto had only two. | | | Zeus had turned all the people of Thebes to stone and so no one buried the Niobids until the ninth day after their death, when the gods themselves entombed them. |

| | Niobe - History for Kids! |
| | Niobe had seven children, boys and girls, who were called the Niobids, meaning children of Niobe (I don't know what happened to their dad; he is not in the story). | | | She was the daughter of Tantalus, and so she lived under a curse. | | | People need to remember their place, and not try to be stronger or wiser or smarter than the gods, or bad things will happen to them. |

| | [No title] |
| | Although different versions of the Niobe myth offer slightly different acounts, a consensus of the the stories (and the “Dramatic Personae”) reveals Niobe as a mortal, the daughter of an arrogant man (Tantalus), and the mother of seven sons and seven daughters. | | | Niobe does overcome the bitter fire, and rises again "from one spark in the ashes to live through another cycle of centuries" (xii). | | | Upon their mother’s request, Leto’s two children did mercilessly slay the seven sons and seven daughters of Niobe. |
