Scylaceus

In Greek mythology, Scylaceus, son of Odeus, was a Lycian companion in arms of Sarpedon and Glaucus who were allied with the Trojans. In the last days of the war he was wounded by Ajax the Lesser, but not mortally as he was fated to die at the wall of his own city, Lycia. When Troy was being sacked by the Achean forces he fled to his homeland and was met at the wall of his city by the women inhabitants. When they questioned him about where the other men were he told them all had perished. The women in grief and anger stoned Scylaceus to death due to his bad news. His tomb was built by the stones that buried them and was placed next to another Lycian heroes tomb, Bellerophon. Afterwards at Apollo's orders Scylaceus was worshiped as a god. [QS.10.147] .
