Euchenor, son of the seer
Polyeidos and
Eurydameia, brother of
Cleitus, from
Corinth. The brothers participated in the campaign of the
Epigoni and afterwards fought in the
Trojan War.[4] Polyeidos had predicted that Euchenor would either die of an illness in his home city, or fall at Troy; Euchenor chose to go to the war and was eventually killed by
Paris.[5] Alternately, Euchenor was a grandson of Polyeidos; he was said to have dedicated a sacred image to
Dionysus, surnamed
Dasyllius, at
Megara.[6]
Euchenor, one of the sons of King
Aeolus of
Lipara, the keeper of the winds.[8] He had five brothers namely:
Periphas,
Agenor,
Klymenos,
Xouthos and
Macareus, and six sisters:
Klymene,
Kallithyia,
Eurygone,
Lysidike,
Kanake and an unnamed one.[9] According to various accounts, Aeolus yoked in marriage his sons, including Euchenor, and daughters in order to preserve concord and affection among them.[10][11]
