Ο Παυσανίας αναφέρει ότι αν δεχτούμε πως ο Σχοινεύς είχε αποδημήσει στην Αρκαδία από τη Βοιωτία (βλ. Αρχαίος Σχοινός), τότε θα πρέπει επίσης να δεχτούμε ότι μία τοποθεσία κοντά στο Σχοινούντα, "οι δρόμοι της Αταλάντης", πήραν αυτό το όνομα από την κόρη του (Παυσ. 8,35,10).
Κόρη του Σχοινέα (Παυσ. 8,35,10).
Atalanta: The Arcadian Version. Atalanta, daughter of Zeus and Clymene, was exposed by her father, who had desired male offspring only. She was suckled by a bear, until she was found and brought up by a party of hunters. Under their care she grew up to be a huntress--keen, swift, and beautiful. She took part in the Calydonian boarhunt, was the first who struck the boar, and received from Meleager the head and skin of the beast as the prize of victory. She is also associated with the voyage of the Argonauts. She turned a deaf ear to the entreaties of her numerous suitors; but at last she propitiated the wrath of Aphrodite by returning the faithful love of the beautiful Milanion, who had followed her persistently, and suffered and struggled for her. Their son was Parthenopaeus, one of the Seven against Thebes. Swinburne's poem, Atalanta in Calydon, gives a magnificent setting to the story. (more about Atalanta see Schinos, ancient city, Boeotia )
