Aenus lang el , modern Enez in Turkey , was an ancient Greek city on the southeastern coast of Thrace . Formerly called Poltyobria or Poltymbria , it was located near the mouth of the Maritsa Hebrus River , not far from the Melas Gulf modern Gulf of Saros , which is formed by the Thracian Chersonesus to the east. The city was said to be founded or at least settled by Aeolians Aeolian migrants from Lesbos Island Lesbos . Aenus is mentioned by several ancient authors e.g., Homer, Strabo, Apollodorus, Thucydides , and makes several appearances in Greek mythology . Its mythical and eponymous founder was said to be Aeneus of Aenus Aeneus , a son of the god Apollo and father of Cyzicus Greek mythology Cyzicus . Another mythical ruler, named Poltys , son of Poseidon , entertained Heracles when he came to Aenus. On that occasion, Heracles slew Poltys insolent brother Sarpedon on the beach of Aenus. According to Strabo, Sarpedon is the name of the coastline near Aenus, so both Poltys and Sarpedon would appear to be eponyms. In the Iliad , Homer mentions that the leaders of Troy s Thracians Thracian allies, Acamas and Peiros , came from Aenus. In the late middle ages Ainos became the site of a castle of the Gattelusi, the Genoese family that ruled much of the northern Aegean while nominally subject to the Byzantine empire.

He was made by his father ruler of the Bosporan Kingdom after Mithridates, for the second time, reduced that country, after the short war with the Roman Republic Roman Lucius Licinius Murena Murena , in 80 BC. In 73 BC, Mithridates, after his defeat by the Romans at Battle of Cyzicus 74 BC Cyzicus , applied to Machares for succours, which were at the time readily furnished but two years afterwards the Third Mithridatic War repeated disasters of Mithridates proved too much for the fidelity of Machares, and he sent an embassy to the Roman general Lucullus with a present of a crown of gold, and requested to be admitted to terms of alliance with Rome. This was readily granted by Lucullus and as a proof of his sincerity, Machares furnished the Roman general with supplies and assistance in the siege of Sinop, Turkey Sinope . But when Mithridates, after his defeat by Pompey , adopted the daring resolution of marching with his army to the Bosporus, and renewing the contest from thence, Machares became alarmed for the consequences of his defection and on learning the actual approach of his father, in 65 BC, fled to the city of Chersonesus, where he soon after, despairing of pardon, committed suicide.
