Deileon
Figures in Greek mythology
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Deileon (Ancient Greek: Δηιλέων Dēileōn) may refer to two figures in Greek mythology.
- Deileon, a Triccan prince as son of King Deimachus in Thessaly. Along with his brothers, Autolycus and Phlogius, Deileon took part in the campaign of Hercules during the Amazon battles.[1] These three brothers went astray and stayed at Sinope,[2] where they later met the Argonauts and joined them on their expedition to Colchis. Plutarch mentioned him as Demoleon.
- Deileon, a Greek henchman of Epeius of Phocis during the Trojan War. He was killed by the hero Aeneas.[3]
