Telamon

The elder brother of Peleus, Telamon sailed alongside Jason as one of his Argonauts,[2] and was present at the hunt for the Calydonian Boar.

In the Iliad, he was the father of Greek heroes Ajax the Great and Teucer by different mothers.

He and Peleus were also close friends of Heracles, assisting him on his expeditions against the Amazons and his assault on Troy (see below).

In an earlier account recorded by Pherecydes of Athens, Telamon and Peleus were not brothers, but friends.

Heracles rescued her at the last minute and killed both the monster and Laomedon and Laomedon's sons, except for Ganymede, who was on Mount Olympus, and Podarces, who saved his own life by giving Heracles a golden veil Hesione had made.

When Ajax later committed suicide at Troy, Telamon banished Teucer from Salamis for failing to bring his brother home.
