Hyginus

Hyginus makes Plisthenes an infant son of Thyestes whom Atreus slaughters with Tantalus and serves to their father — the banquet that turns the sun aside.

Pleisthenes

A name tangled in Pelopid genealogy — here the banquet victim of Thyestes' house, not the stem-father sometimes placed between Pelops and Agamemnon.

Thyestes

Plisthenes' father — the king who eats his children's flesh at Atreus' feast, the crime that seeds the next generation's curse.

Atreus

The uncle who murders Plisthenes and serves him to Thyestes — Mycenae's banquet as the house's defining horror.
