 * Solid lines indicate descendants.
 * Dashed lines indicate marriages.
 * Dotted lines indicate extra-marital relationships or adoptions.
 * Kings of Thebes are numbered with bold names and a light purple background.

 * Regents of Thebes are alphanumbered (format AN) with bold names and a light red background.
 * The number N refers to the regency preceding the reign of the Nth king. Generally this means the regent served the Nth king but not always, as Creon (A9) was serving as regent to Laodamas (the 10th King) when he was slain by Lycus II (the usurping 9th king).
