Architeles
Architeles (Ancient Greek: Ἀρχιτέλης) was the name of several people from ancient Greek mythology:
- Architeles, the Calydonian kinsman King Oeneus and father of a young cupbearer[1] named variously as Archias[2], Cherias[3], Eurynomus[4], Eunomus[5] or Cyathus[6] whom Heracles killed by accident on his visit to Oeneus. The father forgave Heracles but the hero nevertheless went into voluntary exile.[7]
- Architeles, a son of Achaeus and Automate, and brother of Archander, together with whom he carried on a war against the king Lamedon.[8] He married a woman also named Automate, who was the daughter of Danaus.[9]
