Polyphontes In Greek mythology, Polyphontes was the son of Autophonus, a warrior who figured in Polynices' war to regain the throne of Thebes from his brother, Eteocles. He is mentioned in Book IV of the ''Iliad'', when Agamemnon reminds Diomedes of the deeds of his father Tydeus. In Agamemnon's story, Tydeus was an ally of Polynices. He entered Thebes, and challenged and defeated all the Theban leaders. Eteocles then sent Polyphontes and Maion with fifty men to ambush Tydeus on his way back to his army, but Tydeus killed all of them except Maion.〔Homer. ''The Iliad'' (translated by Richmond Lattimore). Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1951, p. 123.〕 In some translations the name is given as Lycophontes. In Aeschylus' play ''Seven Against Thebes'', however, Polyphontes is one of the seven Theban defenders who face the Argive champions at Thebes' gates. He faces Capaneus at the Electran gates.〔Aeschylus. ''Seven Against Thebes'', line 449.〕 ==References==
