Aeneas in Troy
Aeneas, son of Aphrodite (Venus) and Anchises, married Creusa, the daughter of Priam and Hecuba, kings of Troy. His mother managed to have his weapons built by Hephaestus (Vulcan). Homer (Iliad) and Virgil (Aeneid) consider Aeneas the best warrior after Hector. Aphrodite treated his wounds caused by Diomedes.
Eneias, filho de Afrodite (Venus) e Anquises, casou com Creúsa, filha de Príamo e Hécuba, reis de Tróia. Sua mãe conseguiu que as suas armas fossem fabricadas por Hefestos (Vulcano). Homero (Ilíada) e Virgílio (Eneida) consideram-no o melhor guerreiro depois de Heitor. Afrodite tratou-lhe as feridas provocadas por Diomedes.
