in Greek mythology, Agamemnon was a legendary king of Mycenae and a leader of the Achaian forces during the Trojan War.
Influence
After his death, a tomb dedicated to him was built in Argolis, within the region regarded as his 'palace'.[1]
Agamemnon is featured in Homer's works The Iliad and The Odyssey. The authors Euripides and Sophokles also wrote of him. [citation needed]
During the Classical period, Agamemnon was referred by the Cult of Kosmos as the first servant of Kosmos, the Cult's ideal of peace through order.[1]
During the Peloponnesian War the Spartan misthios Kassandra found Agamemnon's own personal armor set that he had worn in battle, most notably during the Trojan War.[1]
Trivia
