Description:
Kladeos (Greek: Κλάδεος, Latin: Cladeus) was a river god in Greek mythology, one of the sons of Oceanus and Tethys.

The river Kladeos flows through Olympia in Elis, southern Greece, and empties into the river Alfeios. The river in the winter is protected from the flooding of Ancient Olympia. In the Mycenaean period, the Kladeos area was flooded. The flood continued in the Middle Ages and went up to the German excavations of Olympia in 1875 where it buried Olympia with a height of 4 m. The Greek poet Pindar in the 5th century BC studied the intersection of Cladeus and Alpheus rivers.
