 The Athenaeum - Viewing Anchises, a mythical figure   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
ANCHISES, in Greek legend, Trojan hero, son of Capys and Themis, grandson (according to Hyginus, son) of Assaracus, connected on both sides with the royal family of Troy, was king of Dardanus on Mt. Ida.
From the name Assaracus, from the intercourse between the Phoenicians and the early inhabitants of the Troad, and from the connexion of Aphrodite, the protecting goddess of the Phoenicians, with Anchises, it has been inferred that his family was originally of Assyrian origin.
His flight on the shoulders of Aeneas is frequently represented on engraved gems of the Roman period; and his visit from Aphrodite is rendered in a beautiful bronze relief, engraved in Millingen's Unedited Gems.

Enumération des ancêtres troyens, qui permettent aux Iulii de se doter d'une généalogie divine : Jupiter d'un côté (via Dardanus, fils de l’Atlantide Électre et de Jupiter ; via aussi Érichtonios, Tros, Assaracus, Capys, Anchise), Vénus de l'autre (via Énée, né des amours d’Anchise et de Vénus).
L'Énéide de Virgile également fait une large place à certains de ces ancêtres troyens, de Dardanus (par exemple Énéide, 7, 205-211 ; 8, 134-136 et 3, 167-168) à Anchise, en passant par Assaracus (Énéide, 6, 650 ; 6, 778 ; 9, 259 ; 9, 643).
