- Iapyx 1
- Peucetius

These three brothers are said to have emigrated
together to Italy. Along with them came General
Messapius with a strong contingent of Illyrians. In
Italy they expelled the Ausonians (Italians), and
divided the country among themselves. The Daunians
(so called after Daunius) established in
southeastern Italy (near the Gargano peninsula).
Iapygia, the country in the "heel" of Italy was
called after Iapyx 1. The region of Peucetius is in
Apulia, southern Italy. In the same manner, the
region nowadays called Calabria was then called
Messapia after their general Messapius.
Some believe that Iapyx 1 is the same as Iapyx
3, the son of Daedalus,
but this is unlikely.
Others say that Peucetius emigrated to Italy but
not with those brothers name above, but together
with his brother Oenotrus after whom the land of
Oenotria was named. Oenotrus is sometimes
considered to be the youngest of the brothers. He
was born seventeen generations before the
Trojan War, and being
dissatisfied with his portion of his father's land,
left Arcadia, and with
his brother Peucetius emigrated to Italy.
