< Tlesimenes, son of Parthenopaeus >

1 Origin

Tlesimenes was born in 1225 BC in Mysia of Pergamene.

His father was Parthenopaeus, son of Atalanta.

Tlesimenes' mother was Clymene.

2 Family

Tlesimenes had a son, Aulon.

3 Others

In 1205 BC, Tlesimenes participated in Epigoni's attack on Thebes to avenge the death of Parthenopaeus, who was killed in Adrastus' attack on Thebes.

In 1196 BC, Tlesimenes piloted Thersander, who led the captives (refugees) of Thebes to a new land, to Mysia of Pergamene, where Thersander died.

It is assumed that Tlesimenes then emigrated from Mysia of Pergamene to Arcadia.

Tlesimenes' son Aulon lived in Arcadia.

Presumably, Tlesimenes succeeded Schoinus, founded by Schoeneus, the father of Atalanta, the mother of Parthenopaeus.
