In Greek mythology, Corybas (Ancient Greek: Κορύβας, romanized: Korúbas) is the son of Iasion and the goddess Cybele, who gave his name to the Corybantes (Koribantes), or dancing priests of Phrygia. The Korybantes were associated with Orpheus, another son of Apollo and a Mousa, founder of the closely related Orphic Mysteries.[1]
