Hippolyta is leader of the Amazons and mother to Wonder Woman. Her daughter was born of clay made flesh, blessed by the Gods to create life without man. Following her rape at the hands of Hercules, her people became very isolationist. Ruling her people on Themyscira, she has also entered man's world to use the Wonder Woman alias. She has been a member of the Justice Society of America.
Hippolyta was adapted from the mythological character for DC by William Moulton Marston and Harry G. Peter, first appearing in All-Star Comics #8 (1942).
