Hier zijn de persoonsgegevens van Aeolus (zoon van Hellen):

In Greek mythology, Aeolus[1] (/iːˈoʊləs/; Ancient Greek: Αἴολος, romanized: Aíolos [ǎi̯.o.los], Greek: [ˈe.o.los] (About this soundlisten), lit. 'quick-moving, nimble') was the ruler of Aeolia (later called Thessaly) and held to be the founder of the Aeolic branch of the Greek nation.

Aeolus was the son of Hellen[2] and the nymph Orseis, and a brother of Dorus, Xuthus, Xenopatra,[3] and, in some sources, of Amphictyon (who is otherwise a brother of Hellen).[4] He married Enarete, daughter of Deimachus (otherwise unknown). Aeolus and Enarete had many children, although the precise number and identities of these children vary from author to author in the ancient sources. The great extent of country which this race occupied, and the desire of each part of it to trace its origin to some descendant of Aeolus, probably gave rise to the varying accounts about the number of his children. Some scholars contend that the most ancient and genuine story told of only four sons of Aeolus: Sisyphus, Athamas, Cretheus, and Salmoneus, as the representatives of the four main branches of the Aeolic race.
