In Greek mythology, Aesepus was the son of the naiad Abarbarea and Bucolion. His twin brother was Pedasus. ; the pair appears briefly in the Iliad, Book VI. Both men fought in the Trojan War and were killed by Euryalus, the son of Mecisteus.
Euryalus killed Dresus, Opheltius,
then charged after Aesepus and Pedasus,
whom the naiad nymph Abararea bore
to noble Boucolion, son of high-born Laomedon,
his eldest son. His mother bore Pedasus secretly.
Bucolion had had sex with the nymph
while tending to his flock. She became pregnant,
then gave birth to twin sons.
