http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iole

In Greek mythology , Iole (Ancient Greek : was the daughter of Eurytus , king of Oechalia. According to the brief epitome by the so-called Apollodorus, Eurytus had a beautiful young daughter named Iole who was eligible for marriage. Iole was claimed by Heracles for a bride, but Eurytus refused her hand in marriage. Iole was indirectly the cause of Heracles's death because of his wife's jealousy of her.
There are different versions of the mythology of Iole from many ancient sources. The pseudo-Apollodorus gives the most complete story followed by slight variations of his from Seneca and Ovid Other ancient sources (i.e. Diodorus Siculus , Gaius Julius Hyginus , and Pseudo-Plutarch ) have similar information on Iole with additional variations.
