Briseis
Other names: Hippodamia[H45]
Her husband Mynes and brothers were killed by Achilles after sacking
Lyrnessus.[L25]
He carried her off for himself and married her, and they were both to love
each other.[L25]
Agamemnon takes her away from Achilles, and from this point, Achilles
refuses to fight any further in the Trojan War which results in the deaths
of many people.[L25]
After the death of Patroclus, Achilles returns to battle, making peace with
Agamemnon, and Briseis is returned to him.[W78] |
