In Greek mythology, Mégês Phyleïdês (Greek: Μέγης Φυλεΐδης) was the commander of Epeans and/or Dulichians during the Trojan War. FamilyMeges was the son of Phyleus and his mother's name is variously given as either Eustyoche,[1] Ctimene, Timandra,[2] Hagnete, or Ctesimache.[3] MythologyMeges was one of Helen's suitors[4] and commanded the armies of the Echinadians and the Dulichians during the Trojan War, having summoned forty or sixty ships; he also led a contingent of Epeans who had once migrated to Dulichium together with his father.[1][3][5][6] Meges was credited with killing a number of opponents, including Pedaeus (a son of Antenor),[7] Croesmus,[8] Amphiclus,[9] Itymoneus, Agelaus,[10] Eurymenes,[11] and Deiopites.[12] Dolops attempted to strike him with a spear but the corselet Meges was wearing, a gift for his father from Euphetes of Ephyra, saved his life.[13] Meges helped Odysseus to collect gifts for Achilles.[14] He was one of the men to enter the Trojan Horse.[15] According to Dictys Cretensis, Meges fell at Troy.[16] Pausanias mentions a painting of him wounded in the arm by a Trojan, Admetes the son of Augeas.[17] Tzetzes relates that Meges, along with Prothous and a number of others, perished at Euboea.[18] References1. ^1 Hyginus, Fabulae, 97 2. ^Eustathius on Homer, 305. 15 3. ^1 Tzetzes, Homeric Allegories, Prologue, 576 - 577 4. ^Pseudo-Apollodorus, Bibliotheca 3. 10. 8 5. ^Homer, Iliad 2. 625; 5. 69; 13. 692; 15. 531 6. ^Euripides, Iphigenia in Aulis, 284 7. ^Iliad 5. 69 8. ^Il. 15. 523 9. ^Il. 16. 313 10. ^Quintus Smyrnaeus, Fall of Troy, 1. 279 11. ^Qu.
