Antilochus (comrade of Odysseus)

Not to be confused with Antilochus, prince of Pylos and son of Nestor.

In Greek mythology, Antilochus (/ænˈtɪləkəs/; Ancient Greek: Ἀντίλοχος Antílokhos) was one of the comrades of the Greek hero Odysseus.^[1] When the latter and 12 of his crew came into the port of Sicily, the Cyclops Polyphemus seized and confined them. Along with the Ithacan king and six others namely: Lycaon, Amphialos, Alkimos, Amphidamas and Eurylochos, Antilochus survived the manslaughter of his six companions by the monster.^[2]
