Hecamede

Character from Greek mythology From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the Iliad, Hecamede (Ancient Greek: Ἑκαμήδη), daughter of Arsinoos, was captured from the isle of Tenedos and given as captive to King Nestor. In her most prolonged mention, she serves Pramnian wine, a medicinal drink, to Nestor and Machaon.[2]

For some,[1] this cup shows Hecamede mixing kykeon for Nestor. Tondo of an Attic red-figure cup, ca. 490 BC. From Vulci.
