Menoetius and Sthenele, daughter of Acastus, were the parents of Patroclus. After the boy accidentally killed Clysonymus during a quarrel over dice, Menoetius brought him to Peleus's court in Phthia for refuge and purification.
⚠ Apollodorus (3.13.8) names Sthenele; other traditions give Polymele or Philomela as Patroclus's mother.
