  • Achelous was also an important deity in Etruscan mythology, intimately related to water as in the Greek tradition but also carrying significant chthonic associations. Man-faced bull iconography was first adapted to represent Achelous by the Etruscans in the 8th century BC, and the Greeks later copied this tradition.
  • Achelous was a suitor of Deianeira, daughter of King Oeneus of Aetolia. Another suitor, Heracles fought him for her. Achelous turned himself into a serpent and later, a bull but Heracles defeated him and broke one of his horns, giving it to the nymphs. It later became the Cornucopia. In Ovid's Metamorphoses, Achelous relates this tale to Theseus while hosting him in a cave.

On earth, he ruled the river Achelous which shared his name. the river flowed southward from Thessaly and formed the boundary between Acarnania and Aetolia as it flowed to the Ionian Sea in the land that would be modern Greece.
