*Hippotes, father of Aeolus, the keeper of the Winds in the "Odyssey". He was a mortal king. [Apollonius of Rhodes. iv. 778]
*Hippotes, a son of Phylas by a daughter of Iolaus, and a great-grandson of Heracles. When the Heracleidae, on their invading the Peloponnesus, were encamped near Naupactus, Hippotes killed the seer Carnus, in consequence of which the army of the Heracleidae began to suffer very severely, and Hippotes by the command of an oracle was banished for a period of ten years. [Pseudo-Apollodorus, ii. 8. § 3] [Pausanias, "Description of Greece" ii. 4. § 3, 13. § 3] [Conon, "Narrat." 26] [Scholiast "ad Theocrit." v. 83] He seems to be the same as the Hippotes who was regarded as the founder of Cnidus in Caria. [Diodorus Siculus, v. 9, 53] [John Tzetzes, "ad Lycoph." 1388]
*Hippotes, a son of Creon, who accused Medea of the murder she had committed on his sister and his father. [Diodorus Siculus, iv. 54. &c.] [Scholiast, "ad Eurip. Med." 20]
