Λέγεται ὅτι Αἴολος ἄνθρωπος ἦν κυριεύων πνευμάτων, ὅστις ἔδωκεν Ὀδυσσεῖ τοὺς ἀνέμους ἐν ἀσκῷ· περὶ δὲ τούτου, ὡς οὐχ οἷόν τε γίνεσθαι, δῆλον εἶναι πᾶσιν οἶμαι. εἰκὸς δὲ ἀστρολόγον γενόμενον Αἴολον φράσαι Ὀδυσσεῖ τοὺς χρόνους καὶ καθ’ ἃς ἐπιτολὰς ἄνεμοί τινες πνευσοῦνται. φασὶ δὲ ὅτι καὶ χαλκοῦν τεῖχος τῇ πόλει αὐτοῦ περιεβέβλητο, ὅπερ ἐστὶ ψεῦδος· ὁπλίτας γὰρ εἶχε τὴν πόλιν αὐτοῦ φυλάττοντας.
