In the King Laomedon version, Laomedon planned on sacrificing his daughter Hesione to Poseidon in the hope of appeasing him. Tros agreed Heracles succeeded and Telamon married Hesione, Tros’ daughter, by whom he sired Teucer. In the King Tros version, Heracles (along with Telamon and Oicles) agreed to kill the monster if Tros would give him the horses he received from Zeus as compensation for Zeus’ kidnapping Tros’ son, Ganymede. Before the Trojan War, Poseidon sent a sea monster to attack Troy. Telamon also features in both versions of Heracles’ sacking of Troy, which was ruled by King Laomedon (or Tros in the alternate versions). In other versions of the myth Cychreus' daughter is named Glauce, and Periboea is Telamon's second wife, and the daughter of Alcathous. Telamon married Cychreus' daughter Periboea, who gave birth to Ajax sometime later, Cychreus gave Telamon his kingdom. According to this account, Telamon was the son of Actaeus and Glauce, with the latter being the daughter of Cychreus, king of Salamis and Telamon married Periboea ( Eriboea ), daughter of King Alcathous of Megara.Īfter killing their half-brother, Phocus, Telamon and Peleus fled Aegina and made their way to the island of Salamis, where King Cychreus welcomed Telamon and befriended him. In an earlier account recorded by Pherecydes of Athens, Telamon and Peleus were not brothers, but friends.
He and Peleus were also close friends of Heracles, assisting him on his expeditions against the Amazons and his assault on Troy (see below). Some accounts mention a third son of his, Trambelus. In the Iliad, he was the father of Greek heroes Ajax the Great and Teucer by different mothers. The elder brother of Peleus, Telamon sailed alongside Jason as one of his Argonauts, and was present at the hunt for the Calydonian Boar. In Greek mythology, Telamon ( / ˈ t ɛ l ə m ə n/ Ancient Greek: Τελαμών, Telamōn means "broad strap") was the son of King Aeacus of Aegina, and Endeïs, a mountain nymph.
