Chalcodon (of Euboea)

Role: famous hero · First appears: Book 8 · Chapter 15

Book 8 · Chapter 15

• with Amphitryon (Amphitryon was said to have slain Chalcodon.) “For how could Chalcodon have assisted Hercules in this affair, since Amphitryon is declared to have slain him earlier according to Theban information that we can rely on?”
• child: Elephenor (The famous Chalcodon of Euboea is identified as Elephenor's father; the local namesake is not.) “As one was the father of that Elephenor who led the Eubœans to Ilium, and the other the father of Ajax and Teucer, no one will credit that they fell in this battle.”
