Family
The family of Phoroneus
Parents, consorts and children as the accounts give them. Choose a consort to see the children the stories give the two.
Accounts differ about a god’s family. Where they name different parents, the tree sets them side by side instead of choosing one.

Kinship in an account 22
What this means
Parentage as a named source tells it. Not an independently established biological relationship, and different accounts disagree.
Does not imply an independently established biological relationship · agreement between accounts · marriage as a legal institution · exclusivity, or a single canonical pairing · shared parentage in every account · descent from the same generation in a single tree

Connections
How Phoroneus connects
Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.
Succession in office 1
What this means
