Antenorides (
Ancient Greek: Ἀντηνορίδης) was a
patronymic of
ancient Greece, used in
Greek mythology, from the mythological
Antenor, and applied to his sons and descendants, the Antenoridae.[1]Pindar and the
scholiast on Pindar suggest that the Antenoridae were worshipped in ancient
Cyrene because of the legend of their migration to Cyrene from Troy.[2][3]
The historian
Strabo makes reference to a lost play of
Sophocles called the Antenoridae (Ἀντηνορίδαι),[4][5] which may have dealt with the history of the family following the
Trojan War.[6]
