In Greek mythology, [[Parthenopaeus]] or [[Parthenpaios]] (/pɑːrˌθɛnəˈpiːəs/; Ancient Greek: [[Παρθενοπαῖος]], Parthenopaîos) was one of the Seven against Thebes, a native of Arcadia, described as young and outstandingly good-looking, but at the same time arrogant, ruthless and over-confident, although an unproblematic ally for the [[Argive|Argives]].
|wketx=In Greek mythology, [[Parthenopaeus]] or [[Parthenpaios]] (/pɑːrˌθɛnəˈpiːəs/; Ancient Greek: [[Παρθενοπαῖος]], Parthenopaîos) was one of the Seven against Thebes, a native of Arcadia, described as young and outstandingly good-looking, but at the same time arrogant, ruthless and over-confident, although an unproblematic ally for the [[Argive|Argives]].


Parthenopaeus was the son of [[Atalanta]] by either her husband [[Hippomenes]] (Melanion), or by [[Meleager]], or [[Ares]]. A less common version makes him a son of [[Talaus]] and [[Lysimache]] (which makes him a close relative of the other members of the Seven and thereby motivates his involvement in the war). [[Hyginus]] writes that he was left exposed by [[Atalanta]] on Mount [[Parthenius]] ("virginal") in [[Arcadia]], so that she could conceal the fact that she was not a virgin anymore; the name Parthenopaeus is accordingly interpreted by [[Hyginus]] as "seemingly-virginal" or the like, as if referring to the fact that his mother was pretending to still be a virgin. He was subsequently rescued by a shepherd, along with [[Telephus]], the son of [[Auge]] and [[Heracles]], who had been abandoned on the same mountain, and the two boys were good friends. Parthenopaeus went with [[Telephus]] to [[Teuthrania]], where he helped him repulse [[Idas]]'s invasion of the kingdom of [[Teuthras]].

Euripides noted that Parthenopaeus moved from Arcadia to Argos at a young age, and seemed to have enjoyed a friendly reception from the Argives.
