In Greek mythology, Crantor (Ancient Greek: Κράντωρ, -ορος) was a son of Amyntor and possibly Hippodamia[1] or Cleobule.
When Amyntor lost a war with Achilles' father Peleus, Amyntor gave his son Crantor to Peleus as a pledge of peace.
Crantor became the arms-bearer for Peleus, and was killed by the centaur Demoleon in the Centauromachy, the battle between the Lapiths and the Centaurs at the wedding feast of Pirithous.
Demoleon fatally wounded Crantor after he tore off Crantor's chest and left shoulder with a tree trunk that Demoleon had thrown at Theseus, who ducked out of the way.
