In Euripides Ion, Aeolus is referred to as the son of Zeus and the husband of Creusa, the daughter of Erechtheus. Just wondering how this fits in with the other interpretations of Aeolus.

Look, Aeolus is my fav god, does anyone know any more recent legends about him??? I'd really like to know :D —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.73.46.34 (talk) 00:09, 25 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

There's a movie from 2009 which isn't about Aeolus, but in which the legend is referenced several times over. It's kind of a twilight-zoney, time-travelly kind of thing. It's called Triangle. It really belongs in a "modern references" section, but I don't know how to create that, this is my first time editing anything on wikipedia. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1187064/ (100.38.45.15 (talk) 11:05, 2 November 2017 (UTC) Mowg)Reply

Multiplying Aeolus

edit

Differing genealogies and minor details don';t make multiple keeps of the Winds. The last two sections need joining together.--Wetman (talk) 21:11, 26 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Mimas/Hippotes

How can the son of Hippotes be the son of Mimas? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Grushenka (talkcontribs) 12:16, 20 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Because the Greeks did not translate myth into "biography" and collect and burn as heretical all versions save the one that was declared orthodox.--Wetman (talk) 15:28, 20 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Pronunciation

edit

IPA for classical Greek pronunciation gives [ájjolos]; it links over to "IPA for Greek", which lists two columns for each letter, rendering both the classical and modern pronunciations in IPA format. However, there is no letter which gives the consonant "j" in classical (or modern, for that matter) pronunciation. I suppose the IPA rendering in the article should be fixed, but I don't have a sufficient knowledge of classical Greek pronunciation.74.192.195.94 (talk) 11:20, 27 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Incidentally, I understand the consonant [j], but I am questioning the validity of a double consonant for the vowel iota, and anyhow there seems to be no consonant that takes the sound [j] in Greek.74.192.195.94 (talk) 11:24, 27 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Roman version

edit

Is there a Roman equelevent(s) of this/these (Semi-)God(s)?, I can't find any mention.--82.134.154.25 (talk) 20:37, 6 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
