Anchises 1 was taken by desire, but after they had made love, Aphrodite revealed her true identity and Anchises 1 feared the gods would destroy him for having slept with a goddess.
Aphrodite came to Anchises 1 in the form of a beautiful maiden, saying she was a mortal woman and the daughter of one Otreus.
Some say that it was Zeus himself who aroused in Aphrodite the desire to be joined with a mortal man, so to prevent her to say mockingly that she had joined all the gods with mortals.

The greatest moment in Anchises 1's life must have been his meeting with Aphrodite, when he was tending cattle on Mount Ida. When the goddess saw him, she was seized by desire, and went immediately to her precinct in Paphos in the island of Cyprus, where the CHARITES bathed her with heavenly oil.
Hippodamia 5, daughter of Anchises 1, married Alcathous 2, a son of Aesyetes who was killed by King Idomeneus 1 of Crete during the Trojan War.
Anchises 1, who had the privilege of being loved by a goddess, came from Dardania, a territory neighbouring Troy named after Dardanus 1, the man who colonized it after leaving the island of Samothrace where he had lived until then.

These prophetic elements of Aeneas’ journey in the Underworld begin and end with Aeneas’ conversation with his father, in which Anchises lists and points out for Aeneas those souls in the Elysian Fields which will, as descendants of Aeneas and heirs to his power in Italy, establish and perpetuate the glorious Roman Empire.

 Aeneas in Wonderland
  As Anchises lays out this division between the body and the soul, one cannot help connect it with Christian thoughts on the afterlife: that the body is left behind as the soul ascends to the ethereal.
  Anchises, however, continues his explanation of reincarnation by solidifying Aeneas’s trials in his fated search for Italy as he explains and expounds upon the souls waiting to be reborn.
 Virgil’s inclusion of Aeneas leaving the Underworld through a gate of false dreams is suggestive of two things: either the visit to the Underworld with the prophetic visions of Anchises, and the souls waiting to be born is a false dream; or the entirety of Aeneas’s journey is a false dream.
