In Greek mythology, Agenor was a son of King Pleuron of Aetolia and Xanthippe, and a grandson of Aetolus. He married his cousin Epicaste, daughter of Calydon, and through her became the father of Porthaon and Demonice. He is the Aetolian Agenor, distinct from the Phoenician king of the same name, and his line continues the royal house of Aetolia.

I.Overview
In Greek mythology, Agenor (Ancient Greek: Ἀγήνωρ, romanized: Agēnor, meaning 'heroic, manly') was a son of King Pleuron of Aetolia and Xanthippe, and a grandson of Aetolus. His siblings were Stratonice, Sterope and Laophonte.
II.Family
Agenor married his cousin Epicaste, the daughter of Calydon, who became by him the mother of Porthaon and Demonice.
According to Pausanias, Thestius, the father of Leda, was likewise a son of this Agenor.
III.Genealogy
Agenor belongs to the royal house of Aetolia. His descent runs from Aetolus through Pleuron, and his offspring continue the Aetolian line: Porthaon becomes a link toward the later heroes of Calydon, while through his descendants the lineage connects to wider mythological houses, including the family of Leda.
The article presents this descent in the form of a genealogical tree tracing the Aetolian dynasty across several generations.
