    651 Antikleia is a main-belt asteroid discovered on October 4, 1907 by August Kopff at the Heidelberg-Königstuhl State Observatory.[1] It is named for Anticlea the mother of Odysseus.[8]

    This is a member of the dynamic Eos family of asteroids that most likely formed as the result of a collisional breakup of a parent body.[9]
