The genus of the double Hermes, as the prototype and patron of thieves.

For these qualities, the most cunning of the Hellenes was called. An outstanding wrestler and a fist fighter.

His father allowed him to falsely swear by his name. Autolycus swore so cleverly that later he could not fulfill his oaths without formally breaking them.
