Aleuadae
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Aleuadae (Ancient Greek: Ἀλευάδαι) were an ancient Thessalian family of Larissa, who claimed descent from the mythical Aleuas (Ἀλεύας).[1][2] The Aleuadae were the noblest and most powerful among all the families of Thessaly, whence Herodotus calls its members "rulers" or "kings" (βασιλεῖς).[3][4]
