Aeneas

Beings

The Trojan survivor who founds the Roman lineage in Vergil’s telling. Not Romulus as the later city founder alone, and not a bare Trojan dump.

Hellenic religion

  • Aeneas appears in Hellenic religion.

    Pausanias names Aeneas among Troezen and Greek local Trojan-survivor speech—Hellenic itinerary marks, not the Virgil Aeneid seat alone. A named Aeneas in that periegesis, not Roman destiny chrome.

    from Pausanias · Description of Greece, c. 150–180 CE

Roman religion

  • Aeneas appears in Roman religion.

    Virgil’s Aeneid seats Aeneas as the poem’s Trojan founder-hero from Troy’s fall through Latium war. The named hero of that Roman epic, not a generic hero concept restated and not a second Homeric dump alone.

    from Virgil · Aeneid, 19 BCE (unfinished at the poet’s death)
