This Xanthippe 1 was a daughter of Dorus 2, one of the three hosts that Aetolus 2 killed when he came to the land of the Curetes.
Porthaon married a granddaughter of the River God Achelous, Euryte 2, and became father by her of, among others, Oeneus 2, who in time became King of Calydon.
It is said that when Oeneus 2 was king of Calydon, he was negligent towards Artemis, and the goddess punished him and his country by sending a boar of huge size and strength, which prevented the land from being sown and destroyed the cattle and the people.
