In Greek mythology, what bird rises from its own ashes?

In Greek mythology, the bird said to rise from its own ashes is the phoenix.

The phoenix is an immortal or repeatedly reborn bird whose legend centers on a cycle of death and renewal. In one widely known version, it burns or dies in flames and then emerges renewed from the ashes of its predecessor; other versions describe decomposition followed by regeneration rather than a dramatic fire.

The story is associated with Greek mythology but has parallels in Egyptian, Persian, and other traditions. Greek and Roman writers connected the bird with the sun, long life, and cyclical time. Because the phoenix returns after destruction, it became a powerful symbol of resurrection, renewal, and recovery in later religious, literary, and political writing.

The phoenix is not the same as Garuda, Thunderbird, or Roc. Garuda is a divine bird in Hindu and Buddhist traditions, the Thunderbird is an Indigenous North American supernatural being, and the Roc is a gigantic bird from Middle Eastern legend. None is defined by rebirth from ashes.
