Aeanes

Classical texts and scholia record Aeanes as a personal name preserved in epic tradition and local geography. Strabo states that the man slain by Patroclus was called Aeanes and that a sacred precinct, the Aeaneium, and a spring called Aeanis were named after him. Scholiastic notes and an Apollodorus footnote indicate variant manuscript readings of the slain youth's name (Clisonymus / Cleitonymus or Aeanes), reflecting onomastic instability in transmitted heroic lists rather than a single coherent mythic origin.

The cited sources do not provide a physical or supernatural description of Aeanes. Attestations are documentary (epic index entries, scholia, and Strabo's geographical note) referring to a named mortal and associated place-names; no consistent depiction of a shade or other apparition is given in the provided material.

No supernatural powers, behaviors, or interactions are ascribed to Aeanes in the provided sources. References present Aeanes as a named individual slain in legendary violence (notably 'the man who was slain by Patroclus' per Strabo) and as a name occurring in epic name-lists or scholia. Fragmentary later phrasing that pairs the name with the word 'shade' is not corroborated in the corpus supplied and does not establish abilities or spirit-status.
