In [[Greek mythology]], '''Calliope''' ([[Greek language|Greek]]: Καλλιoπη, ''beautiful-voiced'') was the [[muse]] of epic poetry. She had two sons, [[Orpheus]] and [[Linus]] with [[Apollo]]. She was the oldest and wisest of the Muses. She was the judge in the argument over [[Adonis]] between [[Aphrodite]] and [[Persephone]], giving each equal time with him. She was represented by a stylus and wax tablets.

She is always seen with a writing tablet in her hand, and sometimes carries a roll of paper or a book or wears a gold crown.
