Aeneus (of Aenus)

In Greek mythographic summaries Aeneus is presented as the legendary founder and eponym of the Thracian city Aenus (Greek Αἶνος). Genealogical notices record him as father of Cyzicus by Aenete, daughter of Eusorus, situating Aeneus within local mythic family networks that explain and legitimize the city's name and local identity. The tradition places him in the generic mythic age of city foundation rather than within a dated historical framework.

No physical or supernatural appearance is described in the available sources. Aeneus is attested only as a named ancestral/founder figure and genealogical node; the record supplies no corporeal description.

The cited material does not attribute supernatural powers, behaviors, or functions to Aeneus. He is treated as an etiological and genealogical founder rather than as an active supernatural agent in the surviving summaries.
