Eryx

Eryx (unknown – 48 BCE) was a chariot-maker who resided in Mareia Port, Egypt with his wife Europa during the reign of Ptolemy XIII.

Biography

In 48 BCE, soldiers from the nearby Anthylla Outpost commissioned Eryx to construct a war chariot for the pharaoh Ptolemy XIII. When the chariot was completed, the soldiers offered to pay half the agreed payment, which Eryx refused. Consequently, Eryx was cut down by the soldiers, who stole his chariot in the process.

Legacy

In the aftermath of his death, his wife Europa would cease the sales of chariots in the town. She later met the Medjay, Bayek, and requested his aid to destroy Eryx's war chariot to restore his name and honor.
