In
Greek mythology , Hicetaon (
Ancient Greek : Ἱκετάονα or Ἱκετάονος ) may refer to:
Hicetaon, a Trojan prince as the son of King
Laomedon of
Troy , thus a brother of King
Priam .
[1] He was one of the Trojan elders.
[2] After
Paris kidnapped
Helen of Troy , Hicetaon suggested that she be returned to
Menelaus to avoid war. His sons were:
Melanippus , who died in the
war Hicetaon had sought to avert;
[3]
Critolaus , husband of Priam's daughter
Aristomache ;
[4]
Thymoetes (in the
Aeneid only, otherwise given as his brother);
[5] and, possibly,
Antenor .
[6]
Hicetaon, prince of
Methymna in
Lesbos . He was the son of King
Lepetymnus and
Methymna , daughter of King
Macareus .
[7] He was killed by
Achilles , when the latter attacked the islands close to the mainland.
