Idomeneus

For the Epicurean philosopher, see Idomeneus of Lampsacus In Greek mythology, Idomeneus was a Cretan warrior, grandson of Minos, and king of Crete. He led the Cretan armies to the Trojan War and was also one of Helen's suitors. Meriones was his charioteer and brother-in-arms.In the Iliad, he is found among the first rank of the Greek generals, leading his troops and engaging the enemy head-on, and escaping serious injury. Idomeneus was one of Agamemnon's trusted advisors. He was one of the primary defenders when most of the other Danaan heroes were injured, and even fought Hector briefly and repulsed his attack. He was one of the Achaeans to enter the Trojan Horse. Like most of the other leaders of the Greeks he is alive and well as the story comes to a close.

[Greek heroic] The grandson of Minos, king of Crete, and leader of the Cretan troops during the Trojan War, famous for his heroism during the battle. When Troy fell, he returned home but during the voyage his ship was beset by a violent storm. Fearing for his ship and crew, he promised Poseidon to sacrifice the first living thing that would greet him when he returned home, if the god would calm the storm. While the first one to greet him was his own son, he still kept his promise to Poseidon. His sacrifice angered the gods and they drove him from Crete, and he finally arrived in Calabria (Virgil III, 400). According to another version, a plague broke out when he returned home, and his subjects banished him from Crete. He fled to Calabria in Italy, and then to Colophon in Asia Minor, where he is reputed to be buried.
