Agelaus (Son of Oeneus)

Agelaus (Ancient Greek Ἀγέλαος Agélaos) is the son of Althaea and Oeneus, king of Calydon in Greek mythology. His brother is Meleager.

After the hunt for the Calydonian boar, when the Curetes claim the animal's head and fur, a fight ensues with the Calydonians, during which Agelaus is killed.[1]
