Acoetes, an aged man who was the former squire
Evander in
Arcadia, before the latter emigrated to
Italy.[3]
Acoetes, a soldier in the army of the
Seven against Thebes. When this army fought the
Thebes for the first time on the plain, a fierce battle took place at the gates of the city. During these fights Agreus, from Calydon, cut off the arm of the Theban Phegeus. The severed limb fell to the ground while the hand still held the sword. Acoetes, who came forward, was so terrified of that arm that he hit it with his own sword.[4]
