- Source: Aeneads
This is for the mythical allies of Aeneas. For the story written about them by Virgil, see Aeneid
In Roman mythology, the Aeneads (Ancient Greek: Αἰνειάδαι) were the friends, family and companions of Aeneas, with whom they fled from Troy after the Trojan War. Aenides was another patronymic from Aeneas, which is applied by Gaius Valerius Flaccus to the inhabitants of Cyzicus, whose town was believed to have been founded by Cyzicus, the son of Aeneas and Aenete. Similarly, Aeneades (Ancient Greek: Αἰνειάδης) was a patronymic from Aeneas, and applied as a surname to those who were believed to have been descended from him, such as Ascanius, Augustus, and the Romans in general.
The Aeneads included:
Achates
Acmon, son of Clytius (son of Aeolus),
Anchises
Creusa, wife of Aeneas and mother of Ascanius
Ascanius
Gyas
Iapyx
the Lares
Nisus and Euryalus, heroes of the helmet episode in Book 9
Mimas
Misenus, Aeneas' trumpeter
Mnestheus, possibly Aeneas' most senior commander
the Penates
Serestus
Sergestus
Achaemenides, one of Odysseus' crew the Aeneads picked up in Sicily (strictly speaking not an Aenead as he was not Trojan, but Greek).
