Parentage accounts
Each account is a separate source claim. The parentage and children listed outside these accounts use the recorded default. Selecting an account in the interactive app updates its lineage, descent classification and inherited-power candidates. Linked pedigree accounts are selected together; other records retain their recorded parentage. Claims of ancestry are not proof of biological descent or attested powers.
- Satyrus: transmitted divine ancestryThe quotation places Bocrus directly after Amyntas. Bennett notes a chronological gap and a conjecture of omitted generations; those conjectures are not inserted here. This is a dynastic ancestry claim, not established biological history.
Claimed divine ancestry; fraction unquantified because the account is incomplete.
