In Greek mythology, Amphinomus {{IPAc-en|æ|m|ˈ|f|ɪ|n|ə|m|ə|s}} ({{lang-grc|Ἀμφίνομος}} Amphínomos; literally "grazing all about"), was the son of King Nisos and one of the suitors of Penelope who was killed by Telemachus.

Mythology

Amphinomus was considered the best-behaved of the suitors. Despite Odysseus's warning, he was compelled by Athena to stay, as he had been a suitor nonetheless. He was killed by a spear thrown by Telemachus during the murder of the suitors; ironically, Amphinomous had twice tried to dissuade the suitors from killing Telemachus.[1]

According to some accounts, Amphinomus allegedly seduced Penelope and because of this, she met her end at the hands of her husband Odysseus.[2]
