Lycaon (son of Priam)

In Greek mythology, as recorded in Homer's Iliad, Lycaon (/laɪˈkeɪən/; Ancient Greek: Λυκάων; gen.: Λυκάονος) was a son of Priam[1] and Laothoe, daughter of the Lelegian king Altes.

Lycaon lent his cuirass to his brother Paris when he duelled against Menelaus, husband of Helen.

[3] During the Trojan War, Lycaon was captured by Achilles while cutting branches in Priam's orchard.

Achilles sold him as a slave to Euneus of Lemnos, but Eetion, ruler of Imbros, bought him, took him back to Troy, and restored him to his father.

Lycaon grasped Achilles' knees and begged for mercy, either in exchange for a ransom or in memory of Patroclus' gentle nature; however, neither argument swayed Achilles, who slew him without pity.
