Please answer the following question: Information:  - Greek literature refers to writings composed in areas of Greek influence throughout the period in which the Greek-speaking people have existed.  - The Theban Cycle is a collection of four lost epics of ancient Greek literature which related the mythical history of the Boeotian city of Thebes. They were composed in dactylic hexameter verse and were probably written down between 750 and 500 BC.  - Greek mythology is the body of myths and teachings that belong to the ancient Greeks, concerning their gods and heroes, the nature of the world, and the origins and significance of their own cult and ritual practices. It was a part of the religion in ancient Greece. Modern scholars refer to and study the myths in an attempt to shed light on the religious and political institutions of Ancient Greece and its civilization, and to gain understanding of the nature of myth-making itself.  - In Greek mythology, Polynices, sometimes spelled Polyneices, (Greek: , transl. "Polyneíkes", "manifold strife") was the son of Oedipus and Jocasta. His wife was Argea. His father, Oedipus, was discovered to have killed his father and married his mother, and was expelled from Thebes, leaving his sons Eteocles and Polynices to rule. Because of a curse put on them by their father Oedipus, the sons Polynices and Eteocles did not share the rule peacefully and died as a result by killing each other in a battle for the control of Thebes.  - In Greek mythology, Eteocles was a king of Thebes, the son of Oedipus and either Jocasta or Euryganeia. The name is from earlier "*Etewoklewes", meaning "truly glorious". "Tawagalawas" is thought to be the Hittite rendition of the name. Oedipus killed his father Laius and married his mother without knowing his relationship to either. When the relationship was revealed, he was expelled from Thebes. The rule passed to his sons Eteocles and Polynices. However, because of a curse from their father, the two brothers did not share the rule peacefully. Eteocles was succeeded by his uncle, Creon.  - Dactylic hexameter (also known as "heroic hexameter" and "the meter of epic") is a form of meter or rhythmic scheme in poetry. It is traditionally associated with the quantitative meter of classical epic poetry in both Greek and Latin and was consequently considered to be "the" Grand Style of classical poetry. The premier examples of its use are Homer's "Iliad" and "Odyssey", Virgil's "Aeneid", and Ovid's "Metamorphoses".  - Epigoni ( Greek :  , Epigonoi , `` Progeny '' ) was an early Greek epic , a sequel to the Thebaid and therefore grouped in the Theban cycle . Some ancient authors seem to have considered it a part of the Thebaid and not a separate poem . According to one source the epic extended to 7,000 lines of verse . It told the story of the last battle for Thebes by the Epigoni , the children of the heroes who had previously fought for the city . Only the first line is now known : Now , Muses , let us begin to sing of younger men ... Additional references , without verbal quotations , suggest that the myth of the death of Procris and the story of Teiresias 's daughter Manto formed part of the Epigoni . The epic was sometimes ascribed to Homer , but Herodotus doubted this attribution . According to the Scholia on Aristophanes there was an alternative attribution to `` Antimachus '' . This presumably means Antimachus of Teos , and for this reason another verse line attributed without title to Antimachus of Teos is conjecturally thought to belong to the Epigoni . An alternative explanation for the naming of Antimachus here would be that the later epic poet Antimachus of Colophon had been accused of stealing the traditional Epigoni by incorporating its plot in his literary epic Thebais . The story of the Epigoni was afterwards told again in the form of a tragedy by Sophocles , Epigoni .  - In Greek mythology, Epigoni (from , meaning "offspring") are the sons of the Argive heroes who had fought and been killed in the first Theban war, the subject of the "Thebaid", in which Polynices and six allies (the Seven Against Thebes) attacked Thebes because Polynices' brother, Eteocles, refused to give up the throne as promised. The second Theban war, also called the war of the Epigoni, occurred ten years later, when the Epigoni, wishing to avenge the death of their fathers, attacked Thebes.    What is the relationship between 'epigoni ' and 'ancient greek'?
