Exadius

In Greek mythology, Exadius (Ancient Greek: Ἐξάδιος) was one of the Lapiths who attended the nuptial of their king Pirithous and his bride Hippodamia, and participated in the celebrated Centauromachy.

[1] Exadius was a distinguished warrior during the contest between the Lapiths and the centaurs where he eventually killed the centaur Gyrneus.

[2] Exadius threatened, 'You shall not escape!

And with that, he whirled the antlers of a votive stag, which he found there, hung on a tall pine-tree; and with that double-branching horn he pierced the eyes of Gryneus, and he gouged them out.

One eye stuck to the horn; the other rolled down on his beard, to which it strictly clung in dreadful clotted gore.
