Echo was an Oread nymph of Mount Cithairon in Boeotia. Hera cursed her to only repeat the last words of what was said before. This was a punishment for distracting her with chatter. Echo was loved by the god Pan. Echo was enamored in Narcissus, though. Even after Echo's youth faded away, Echo's repeating voice lived on.
