Mythology
During the siege of Troy, Evandre was slayed by the Cretan warrior Meriones, son of Molus.[2]
"Then, as Evandre through the murderous fray with Thermodosa rushed, stood Meriones, a lion in the path, and slew: his spear right to the heart of one he drave, and one stabbed with a lightning sword-thrust 'twixt the hips: leapt through the wounds the life, and fled away."
