Juno asking Aeolus to release the winds, by François Boucher, 1769, Kimbell Art Museum.

Aeolus (, Aiolos, Modern Greek: ), a name shared by three mythic characters, was the ruler of the winds in Greek mythology.

This Arne became the mother of the second Aeolus, by the god Poseidon.

This Aeolus was a son of Poseidon by Arne, sister of Aeolus.

When Bœotus and Æolus were born, they were raised by Metapontus ; but their stepmother ( Autolyte, wife of Metapontus ) quarrelled with their mother Arne, prompting Bœotus and Aeolus to kill Autolyte and flee from Icaria.

Bœotus ( accompanied by Arne ) went to southern Thessaly, and founded Boeotia ; but Aeolus went to a group of islands in the Tyrrhenian Sea, which received from him the name of the Aeolian Islands ; according to some accounts this Aeolus founded the town of Lipara.

Later writers were shocked by the incest: in Hyginus, the day Aeolus learned that one of his sons, Macareus, had committed incest with his sister Canace he expelled Macareus and threw the child born of this incestuous union to the dogs, and sent his daughter a sword by which she was to kill herself.

It is difficult to differentiate this Aeolus from the second Aeolus, as their identities seem to have been merged by many ancient writers.

This Aeolus lived on the floating island of Aeolia and was visited by Odysseus and his crew in the Odyssey.

This Aeolus was perceived by post-Homeric authors as a god, rather than as a mortal and simple Keeper of the Winds ( as in the Odyssey ).

According to Diodorus, he was father of six sons by Cyane, daughter of Liparus ( the eponym of the island Lipara, whom Aeolus assisted in conquering lands above Surrentum, Italy ).

In the Aeneid by Virgil, Juno offers Aeolus the nymph Deiopea as a wife if he will release his winds upon the fleet of Aeneas.

Liparus is succeeded by Aeolus whose house, according to Homer, gave hospitality to Odysseus.

He was a son of Aeolus and Enarete, and sired several children by his first wife, the goddess Nephele, and his other wives Ino and Themisto.

In Greek mythology, Alcyone (, Halkyónē ) was the daughter of Aeolus, either by Enarete or Aegiale.

The Bibliotheca mentions two different versions of Perieres ' lineage, without deciding between them: he could be a son of Cynortas, husband of Gorgophone and father of Tyndareus, Icarius, Aphareus and Leucippus, or he could be a son of Aeolus and father of only two sons by Gorgophone, Aphareus and Leucippus.

Briefly, the first Aeolus was a son of Hellen and eponymous founder of the Aeolian race ; the second was a son of Poseidon, who led a colony to islands in the Tyrrhenian Sea ; and the third Aeolus was a son of Hippotes who is mentioned in Odyssey book 10 as Keeper of the Winds who gives Odysseus a tightly closed bag full of the captured winds so he could sail easily home to Ithaca on the gentle West Wind.

His rule extended as far as Afyon, in central Anatolia. At the end of the 12th century the area was occupied by a nomadic tribe that had come from across the Caucasus mountains. The tribe was called by the ancient Greeks the " Wind people " ( Ανέμου γένος ) after whom the city was named. The exact reasons behind this name are lost in time. The most probable explanation however, is that they worshiped a god of wind, perhaps similar to the Greek Aeolus, as their main deity.

* Wife of Hippotes, son of Mimas, himself son of Aeolus, and the mother of another Aeolus.

Each of the Greek ethne were said to be named in honor of their respective ancestors: Achaeus of the Achaeans, Danaus of the Danaans, Cadmus of the Cadmeans ( the Thebans ), Hellen of the Hellenes ( not to be confused with Helen of Troy ), Aeolus of the Aeolians, Ion of the Ionians, and Dorus of the Dorians.

Sons of Hellen and the nymph Orsiis were Dorus, Xuthos, and Aeolus.

These three personages are often difficult to tell apart, and even the ancient mythographers appear to have been perplexed about which Aeolus was which.

All three men named Aeolus appear to be connected genealogically, although the precise relationship, especially regarding the second and third Aeolus, is often ambiguous.

Aeolus and Enarete had many children, although the precise number and identities of these children vary from author to author in the ancient sources.

The great extent of country which this race occupied, and the desire of each part of it to trace its origin to some descendant of Aeolus, probably gave rise to the varying accounts about the number of his children.

Some scholars contend that the most ancient and genuine story told of only four sons of Aeolus: Sisyphus, Athamas, Cretheus, and Salmoneus, as the representatives of the four main branches of the Aeolic race.

Another son is named Mimas, who provides a link to the third Aeolus in a genealogy that seems very contrived.

Calyce, Peisidice, Perimede and Alcyone were counted among the daughters of Aeolus and Enarete.

This Aeolus also had an illegitimate daughter named Arne, begotten on Melanippe, daughter of the Centaur Cheiron.

Aeolus had six sons and six daughters, whom in Homer he wed to one another and the family lived happily together.
