Lavinia
Greek · mortal · post trojan war · Recorded classification
Mortal Latin princess, daughter of Latinus; second wife of Aeneas (greek_aeneas) and mother of Silvius (greek_apollod_silvius, whose prose names 'Posthumous son of Aeneas by Lavinia ... daughter of King Latinus'). Authored as the named-but-absent spouse-and-mother. Her father Latinus and mother Amata lack Greek-tradition corpus entries (roman_latinus_silvius is a distinct later Alban king), so they are named rather than wired.
