Life events

Œnomaus killed numerous suitors before Pelops defeated him.(Book 6 · Chapter 21)
- With: Œnomaus Alcathous Euryalus Eurymachus Crotalus Acrias Capetus Lycurgus Lasius Chalcodon Tricolonus (namesake descendant) Aristomachus Prias Pelagon Æolius Erythras Eioneus
- “Indeed according to the poem called the Great Eœæ the following were killed by Œnomaus, Alcathous the son of Porthaon next to Marmax, and next to Alcathous Euryalus and Eurymachus and Crotalus. Their parents and native lands I could not ascertain. But Acrias, who was killed next, one would infer to have been a Lacedæmonian and the founder of Acriæ. And next to Acrias Œnomaus slew Capetus and Lycurgus and Lasius and Chalcodon and Tricolonus, who the Arcadians say was a descendant as well as namesake of Tricolonus the son of Lycaon. And after Tricolonus fate overtook in this fatal race Aristomachus and Prias and Pelagon and Æolius and Cronius. Some also add to the list I have given Erythras, the son of Leucon and grandson of Athamas, who gave his name to the town in Bœotia called Erythræ, and Eioneus, the son of Magnes and grandson of Æolus.”
