Olenus or Olenos (Ancient Greek: Ὤλενος) was a town in the south of ancient Aetolia, between the Achelous River and the Evenus River.
It was named after an Olenus, a son of Zeus or Hephaestus, and is mentioned in the Homeric Catalogue of Ships in the Iliad.
[1] It was situated near Pleuron, at the foot of Mount Aracynthus; but its exact site is uncertain.
It is said to have been destroyed by the Aeolians; and there were only a few traces of it in the time of Strabo.
