In Classical Greek mythology, Taygete (/teɪˈɪdʒətiː/;[1] Ancient Greek: Ταϋγέτη, Ancient Greek: [taːyɡétɛː], Modern Greek: [taiˈʝeti]) was a nymph, one of the Pleiades according to the Bibliotheca (3.10.1) and a companion of Artemis, in her archaic role as potnia theron, "Mistress of the animals", with its likely roots in prehistory. Mount Taygetos in Laconia, dedicated to the goddess, was her haunt.

The Taygetus mountain on the Peloponnese was named after her.^[1]
