Telegonus

In the second paragraph it states that Odysseus is the father of Telegonus but the link for Telegonus leads to a list of people named Telegonus which I believe is unnecessary as this page refers to a specific Telegonus. To push this point further, the info box also refers to Telegonus and links to the specific Telegonus being Odysseus' son. Please change the link in the second paragraph.

Odysseus’ Genealogy and Links

In Odysseus’ genealogy section, it lists Arcesius as the grandson of Aeolus; this is false. Following the links provided, you can see that Arcesius is the great-grandson of Aeolus. Which makes Odysseus the great-great-grandson of Aeolus. This may have been trying to suggest that Cephalus was Aeolus’ grandson (which is correct), in which case the language is confusing and the sentence may need reworded. And on the topic of Cephalus, there seems to be two pages for him? The one provided for him as a link on this page goes to a short paragraph that lists Hermes as his father (?). But if you follow the link provided on his name on Arcesius’ page, you will find a much better article that is more specific to, and more obviously about, the Cephalus that is the grandson of Aeolus. It is also more in depth. That is probably the article that should be linked here rather than the shorter one that is currently there. 2601:248:8481:1B20:3C50:A4EF:CD5A:E165 (talk) 11:29, 24 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

  • Odysseus would be the great-great-great-grandson of Aeolus, seeing as Arcesius is HIS grandfather. Apologies for that mistake!
