Apollodorus
1.7.2
 * And Prometheus had a son Deucalion.1 He reigning in the regions about Phthia, married Pyrrha, the daughter of Epimetheus and Pandora, the first woman fashioned by the gods.2 ...And Deucalion had children by Pyrrha, first Hellen, whose father some say was Zeus, and second Amphictyon, who reigned over Attica after Cranaus; and third a daughter Protogenia, who became the mother of Aethlius by Zeus.5
 * 1 The whole of the following account of Deucalion and Pyrrha is quoted, with a few trifling verbal changes, by the Scholiast on Hom. Il. i.126, who cites Apollodorus as his authority.
 * 2 As to the making of Pandora, see Hes. WD 60ff., Hes. Th. 571ff.; Hyginus, Fab. 142.
 * 5 This passage as to the children of Deucalion is quoted by the Scholiast on Hom. Il. xiii.307, who names Apollodorus as his authority.

1.7.3
 * Hellen had Dorus, Xuthus, and Aeolus1 by a nymph Orseis, Those who were called Greeks he named Hellenes after himself,2 and divided the country among his sons. Xuthus received Peloponnese and begat Achaeus and Ion by Creusa, daughter of Erechtheus, and from Achaeus and Ion the Achaeans and Ionians derive their names. Dorus received the country over against Peloponnese and called the settlers Dorians after himself.3 Aeolus reigned over the regions about Thessaly and named the inhabitants Aeolians.4 He married Enarete, daughter of Deimachus, and begat seven sons, Cretheus, Sisyphus, Athamas, Salmoneus, Deion, Magnes, Perieres, and five daughters, Canace, Alcyone, Pisidice, Calyce, Perimede.5
 * 1 As to Hellen and his sons, see Strab. 8.7.1; Paus. 7.12; Conon 27. According to the Scholiast on Hom. Il. i.2, Xuthus was a son of Aeolus.
 * 2 According to the Parian Chronicle, the change of the national name from Greeks （Graikoi） to Hellenes took place in 1521 B.C. See Fragmenta Historicorum Graecorum, ed. C. Müller, i.542ff.

 * In the times before that which we are discussing the rest of the sons of Aeolus, who was the son of Hellen, who was the son of Deucalion, settled in the regions we have mentioned, but Mimas remained behind and ruled as king of Aeolis. Hippotes, who was born of Mimas, begat Aeolus by Melanippê, and Arnê, who was the daughter of Aeolus, bore Boeotus by Poseidon.

4.67.1
 * Now that we have examined these matters we shall endeavour to set forth the facts concerning Salmoneus and Tyro and their descendants as far as Nestor, who took part in the campaign against Troy. Salmoneus was a son of Aeolus, who was the son of Hellen, who was the son of Deucalion, and setting out from Aeolis with a number of Aeolians he founded a city in Eleia on the banks of the river Alpheius and called it Salmonia after his own name. And marrying Alcidicê, the daughter of Aleus, he begat by her a daughter, her who was given the name Tyro, a maiden of surpassing beauty.

 * Aeolus, which begins ... The plot is this: Aeolus, who had the mastery of the winds from the gods and lived on the islands off Etruria, had fathered six sons and as many daughters. the youngest of these,1 Macareus, fell in love with one of his sisters and violated her; ...

 * But Creusa, the mother of the child, married Xuthus in these circumstances: a wave of war came over Athens and the Chalcidians, [60] who hold the land of Euboea; he joined their efforts, and with them drove out the enemy by his spear; for this he received the honor of marriage with Creusa; he was no native, but born an Achaean from Aeolus, the son of Zeus.

Melanippe Wise
 * test. i (Collard and Cropp, pp. 572, 573)
 * Aeolus, son of Helen son of Zeus, fathered Cretheus, Salmoneus and Sisyphus by Eurydice, and by Chiron's daughter Hippe (he fathered) the exceedingly beautiful Melanippe. [5]


 * fr. 481 (Collard and Cropp, pp. 578, 579)
 * MELANIPPE
 * Zeus, as is told by reliable tradition,1 fathered Hellen who was father to Aeolus. All of the land that Peneus and Asopus bound and enclose whithin their watery arms2 acknowledges his rule and is named Aeolia after my father. This is one of the families descended from Hellen, and he sent forth other offspring to other areas ... (probably a line or two lost) ... 3 to glorias Athens Xuthus, whose bride Erechtheus's daughter, bore Ion to him on Crecropia's ridge.4
 * But I must bring my account †and my name†5 back to where I started from. My name is Melanippe; Chiron's daughter bore me to Aeolus.

For it is infectious to live with savage winds; and therefore he contracts the temper of his people. He commands the South, the Zephyr, and the northern blasts of Thrace; and, surly East, he checks thy rigid wing. He controls indeed the winds; ... This is the true picture of Canace writing to her brother ... Meantime a messenger came from my father [Aeolus], his countenance sad, and his words full of cruelty. Æolus sends thee this sword (he then gave the sword into my hand), and says, that the sense of thy own demerits will teach thee what it means. I know what it means; and will boldly urge the piercing steel: my father's gift shall be treasured in my breast. ... And now he [Aeolus] commanded his little grandchild to be thrown out a prey to dogs and hungry birds, and left in some solitary place.

 * There have been many tribes in Greece, but those which go back to the earliest times are only as many in number as the Greek dialects which we have learned to distinguish. But though the dialects themselves are four in number,4 we may say that the Ionic is the same as the ancient Attic, for the Attic people of ancient times were called Ionians, and from that stock sprang those Ionians who colonized Asia and used what is now called the Ionic speech; and we may say that the Doric dialect is the same as the Aeolic, for all the Greeks outside the Isthmus, except the Athenians and the Megarians and the Dorians who live about Parnassus, are to this day still called Aeolians. ...

 * Salmone is situated near the spring of that name from which flows the Enipeus River. The river empties into the Alpheius, and is now called the Barnichius. It is said that Tyro fell in love with Enipeus:
 * "She loved a river, the divine Enipeus."

 * In antiquity this country was under the mastery of the Ionians, who were sprung from the Athenians; and in antiquity it was called Aegialeia, and the inhabitants Aegialeians, but later it was called Ionia after the Ionians, just as Attica also was called Ionia1 after Ion the son of Xuthus. They say that Hellen was the son of Deucalion, and that he was lord of the people between the Peneius and the Asopus in the region of Phthia and gave over his rule to the eldest of his sons, but that he sent the rest of them to different places outside, each to seek a settlement for himself. One of these sons, Dorus, united the Dorians about Parnassus into one state, and at his death left them named after himself; another, Xuthus, who had married the daughter of Erechtheus, founded the Tetrapolis of Attica, consisting of Oenoe, Marathon, Probalinthus, and Tricorynthus. One of the sons of Xuthus, Achaeus, who had committed involuntary manslaughter, fled to Lacedaemon and brought it about that the people there were called Achaeans; and Ion conquered the Thracians under Eumolpus, and thereby gained such high repute that the Athenians turned over their government to him. ...

 * The securest link is with Lokros, who is Amphiktyon's grandson (by way of Physkos) in Plut. Queaest. graec. 15, and Eust Il. 277.18; the latter has a good chance of going back to Hellanicus, if as I conjecture the otherwise unattested name of Lokros' grandmother, Chthonopatra (wife of Amphiktyon), is a corruption of the similarly unique Xenopatra, daughter of Hellen in Hell. fr. 125 (Amphiktyon thus married his niece).

 * Plutarch and Eustathios go back to the same source, presumably a scholion on Il. 2.527, and behind that perhaps Aristotle's Constitution of the Opountians (frr. 560-4). What has not been noticed is that Eustathios' unique Χθονοπάτρα is surely the same as Hellanikos' Ξενοπάτρα (fr. 125), a similarly unique daughter of Hellen: one has been corrupted into the other in one of these sources (by inversion of 'native' and 'foreign': Χθονοπάτρα is perhaps the original).

p. 188
 * Wise and Melanippe Captive.130 In these, Aiolos son of Hellen had a daughter Melanippe ... An elaboration of the Euripidean scheme is found in Diodoros, who extends the tree at the top end and adds another Aiolos: Aiolos I son of Hellen rules in Aiolos (later called Thessaly); his son is Mimas; Mimas' son is Hippotes; Hippotes' son with Melanippe is Ailos II; this Aiolos' daughter is Arne who with Poseidon has Biotos and Aiolos III. ... The reason for the extra Aioloi is doubless a desire to account for the Aiolian Islands (Aiolos II in Eir., Aiolos III in Diod.). ...
 * To clarify then (and disregard Diodoros), we have (Fig. 5.2) the simple genealogy of schol. Il. 2.494, ostensibly that of Hellanikos (fr. 51a):

 * Prometheus' career does not quite end with his release from bondage; as he was the helper of mankind in Hesiod, so in the Ehoiai of the Catalogue poet he and his brother Epimetheus seem to become the ancestors of the human race. Unfortunately, our chief evidence, a scholion to Apollonios, has probably garbled something in transmission, for it says that the Ehoiai makes Deukalion the son of Prometheus and Pandora, and Hellen the son of either Prometheus or Deukalion and Pyrrha (Hes fr 2 MW).

 * The immediate offspring of Dekalion and Pyrrha, including indeed several generations, are primarily eponymous ancestors or intermediate place-holders rather than actors in any real narratives.1 [See West 1985.138-44 for speculation on how these eponymous ancestors might have developed into a unified family under Deukalion.]


 * To Hellen, son of Deukalion (or Zeus), the Ehoiai gives three sons of his own, Doros, Xoutos, and Aiolos (Hes fr 9 MW)... Xouthos ... have three children, Achaios, Diomede, and a third whose name is missing but is very likely Ion, since the space to be filled in the papyrus gap is quite small (Hes fr. 10a.21-24 MW).  ... Aiolos (not to be confused with the Aiolos son of Hippotes visited by Odysseus as keeper of the winds) has the largest family; his wife (the name is lost: in ApB 1.7.3 she is Enarete) bears seven sons and five daughters. Of the sons the names "Kretheus," "Athamas," "Sisyphos," "Salmoneus," and "Perieres" are preserved; Apollodorus offers "Deion" and "Magnes" as the others, and while "Deion" would fit well in the papyrus, "Magnes," as we have seen, conflicts with the Ehoiai's use of that name elsewhere. We will consider below the evidence for Minyas as the seventh son in [cont.]

No Archaic source mentions Melanippe, a supposed daughter of Aiolos and Hippo, daughter of Cheiron, who appears as the Heroine of two of Euripides' lost plays, the Melanippe Sophe and the Melanippe Desmtis (for her story see chapter 18}.

 * Although as noted above Aiolos, son of Hellen, is quite different from the Aiolos encountered by Odysseus in Homer, the two are inevitably (at times even deliberately) identified, ... The author chiefly responsible for confounding the two seems Euripides. in whose lost Aiolos, a daughter Kanake plays a major role. What the Odyssey tells us is that Aiolos, son of Hippotes lived happily with his wife and twelve children (six sons and six daughters) on a kind of island paradise free of care, that he married the six sons to the six daughters, and that they all lived happilly together (Od 10.1-12). ... but Euripides began his play [Aiolos] with a prologue that mentioned Aeolos, son of Hellen and father of Sisyphos, Athamas, Kretheus, and Salmoneus (fr. 14 N2); ...

Grimal
s.v. Aeolus
 * (Αἴολος) Several characters are known under this name, though they are not easy to distinguish.
 * 1. The first is the son of Hellen and the Nymph Orseis (Table 8), and hence the grandson of Deucalion and Pyrrha. Dorus and Xuthus were his brothers. His descendants became known as the Aeolians. Aeolus was king of Magnesia, in Thessaly. He married Aenarete, the daughter of Deimachus, by whom he had seven sons: Cretheus, Sisyphus, Athamas, Salmoneus, Deion, Magnes, and Perieres&mdash;to whom certain traditions added Macareus, Aethius, and Mimas. He also had five daughters: Canace, Acyone, Pisidice, Calyce, and Perimede (according to some authors Tanagra and Arne were also his daughters). This Aeolus was sometimes identified with the Lord of the Winds (see below), but this title is more often given to Aeolus 2. Aeolus played a part in the tragic love affair of his daughter Canace with Macareus.

 * CHAPTER TWELVE: THE HISTORY OF THE DEUKALIONID FAMILY
 * ...Deukalion, son of Prometheus, the founder of the family, and his wife Pyrrha, who was the daughter of the first woman Pandora, were the central figures in the myth that was devised to account for the origin of the people of Eastern Locris in east-central Greece (or the whole of it or indeed the whole world in accounts from the later tradition). Deukalion and Pyrrha created a new race of people in Locris by tossing stones over their shoulders; and they also produced various children by natural process, including Hellen, the eponym of the Greek people, the Hellenes. Hellen was in turn the father or grandfather of Aiolos, Doros, Achaios and Ion, the eponyms of the four main divisions of the Greek people, the Aeolians, Dorians, Achaeans and Ionians. None of these were of any significance as heroes of legend (apart from Ion to some limited extent). All the main heroes and heroines of the family were descended from Aiolos alone through his many sons and daughters; the history of the Deukalionids is largely the history of the Aiolids.


 * Aiolos, who would have lived in Central Greece near the lands of Deukalion, had seven sons and five daughters who scattered to different parts of Greece.

 * The Hellenes considered that their race could be divided into four main groups, the Aeolians, Dorians. Achaeans and Ionians, ... It was stated accordingly the Hellen fathered three sons, Aiolos Doros amd Xouthos, and that Xouthos became the father of Achaios and Ion.17 [Apollod. 1.7.3, cf. Hes. fr. 9, 10a20-3.]

 * THE DAUGHTERS OF AIOLOS AND THEIR DESCENDANTS
 * Aiolos and his four lesser daughters
 * AIOLOS, the eponym of the aeolian, married Enarete, daughter of Deimachos, who bore him a large family of seven sons and five daughters.39 [Apollod. 1.7.3.] Many important figures from early heroic myth, associated for the most part with Thessaly, Central Greece and the western Peloponnese, can be found among his descendants.
 * Aiolos, son [sic] of Deukalion, should be distinguished from the Aiolos who is keeper of the winds in the Odyssey (see p. 403), even if the two are occasionally confused in ancient sources. Although essentially an eponym and genealogical link rather than a hero of myth, the present Aiolos does make an appearance in one mythical tale as seducer of HIPPE (or Hippo), the daughter of the Centaur Cheiron. It should be remembered in this connection that the daughters or wives of the Centaurs were fully human in form. In the best-preserved version of her tale, from the astronomical literature, Hippe fled into the mountains in shame after becoming pregnant by Aiolos; when her father her father arrived in search of her as she was about to give birth to her child, she prayed to the gods to make her unrecognizable by [cont.]

 * This is the tale in which Hippe ('Mare'), daughter of Cheiron, prayed to the gods to be transformed to prevent her father from seeing her give birth to child outside wedlock. The Casterism was added to a version of her story that had been presented in one of Euripides' two lost plays about Melanippe (that being the name of the daughter who was brought to birth by her in the circumstances that led to her transformation).

 * More nymphs figure in the genealogy of the sons of Hellen, which is geographically tied to Phthia and the north side of the Malian gulf. Hellen's wife is Othreïs or a nymph, Orseïs; West suggests that both are corruptions of Othryis, a nymph of Moint Othrys.153 Their descendants, the Hellenes, spread far and wide, in the process displacing the Pelasgians resident in Thessaly. Aiolos, who is supposed to have remained in Thessaly, especially interests us. There are several conflicting traditions about the name of Aiolos' wife. The earliest attested is that of Hellanicus (4 F 125), who says she was Iphis, daughter of Peneios and mother of Salmoneus.
 * The Thessalian city of Kierion claimed that it was once known as Arne, after another member of Aiolos' family. This Arne,or Melanippe as she is sometimes called, was the offspring of Aiolos' union with a daughter of Cheiron. Arne herself became pregnant by Posiedon and bore the twins Aiolos and Boiotos. ...

s.v. Aeolus 1
 * A son of Hellen and the nymph Orseis, and a brother of Dorus and Xuthus. He is described as the ruler of Thessaly, and regarded as the founder of the Aeolic branch of the Greek nation. He married Enarete, the daughter of Deimachus, by whom he had seven sons and five daughters, and according to some writers still more. (Apollod. 1.7.3; Schol. ad Pind. Pyth. 4.190.) According to Müller's supposition, the most ancient and genuine story knew only of four sons of Aeolus, viz. Sisyphus, Athamas, Cretheus, and Salmoneus, as the representatives of the four main branches of the Aeolic race. 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. According to Hyginus (Hyg. Fab. 238, 242) Aeolus had one son of the name of Macarcus, who, after having committed incest with his sister Canace, put an end to his own life. According to Ovid (Ov. Ep. 11) Aeolus threw the fruit of this love to the dogs, and sent his daughter a sword by which she was to kill herself (Comp. Plut. Parallel. p. 312.)

Tripp
s.v. Aeolus 1
 * The eponym of the Aeolians. Aeolus was a son of Hellen and the nymph Orseïs. When Hellen divided the Greek lands between Aeolus and his brothers, Dorus and Xuthus, Aeolus received Thessaly. He named the people Aeolians, for himself. His sons by Enarete, daughter of Deïmachus, included several of the most powerful rulers of their time: Cretheus, Athamas, Sisyphus, Salmoneus, and Perieres. Other sons, according to some writers, were Magnes, Deïon, Macar or Macareus, and Aëthlius, though the last is generally called a son of Zeus. Aeolus' daughters were Canace, Alcyone, Peisdice, Calyce, Perimele, Tanagra, and Arne. Aeolus killed Canace for committing incest with Macareus, who then killed himself. This Aeolus was regarded by many late authors as the same as Aeolus the guardian of the winds. [Apollodorus 1.7.3]

s.v. Aeolus 2
 * The keeper of the winds. Aeolus, a son of Hippotas, ... Late Classical writers ... also often confused him with Hellen's son Aeolus, eponym of the Aeolians.
