Peleus
In
Greek mythology, Pēleús (
Greek: Πηλεύς) was the son of
Endeïs and
Aeacus, King of
Aegina, and father of
Achilles. He and his brother
Telamon were friends with
Heracles, serving in his expedition against the
Amazons and his war against King
Laomedon. Peleus and
Telamon, his brother, killed their half-brother,
Phocus and fled Aegina to escape punishment. In
Phthia, Peleus was purified by
Eurytion and married
Antigone, Eurytion's daughter. Peleus accidentally killed Eurytion during the hunt for the
Calydonian Boar and fled for Phthia.Peleus was purifed of the murder of Eurytion in
Iolcus by
Acastus.
Astydameia, Acastus' wife, fell in love with Peleus but he scorned her. Bitter, she sent a messenger to Antigone to tell her that Peleus was to marry Acastus' daughter; Antigone hanged herself.
