Overview

From Wikipedia, quoted unmodified under CC BY-SA 4.0; the article’s history is its list of authors.

Family

The family of Celeus

Parents, spouses and children as the records give them.

Documented family only. A teacher, a successor or a patron is never drawn in this tree.

As documented
The family as a list · 13

Family 13

What this means

A documented human family relationship. Not a succession mechanism, and not religious transmission.

Does not imply a right to an office · transmission of a teaching · a shared religious affiliation

Imported from Wikidata unless a tile says otherwise. Nothing here has been read by an editor.

Connections

How Celeus 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

Who held an office after whom. Not parentage, not discipleship, and not universally recognised — offices are contested.

Does not imply recognition by every tradition · an uncontested claim
