Pylaeus In Greek mythology, Pylaeus (Πύλαιος), son of Lethus, was one of the allies to King Priam in the Trojan War; he commanded the Pelasgian contingent together with his brother Hippothous.〔Homer, ''Iliad'', 2. 840 - 843〕〔Dictys Cretensis, 2. 35〕 Pylaeus is hardly ever mentioned separately from his brother; they are said to have fallen in battle together by Dictys Cretensis〔Dictys Cretensis, 3. 14〕 and to have been buried "in a garden" according to the late Latin poet Ausonius.〔Ausonius, ''Epitaph of Heroes Who Participated in The Trojan War,'' 21〕 Strabo, in his comment on the Homeric passage referenced above, mentions that according to a local tradition of Lesbos, Pylaeus also commanded the Lesbian army and had a mountain on the island named Pylaeus after him.〔Strabo, ''Geography'', 13. 3. 3〕 Pylaeus is also an epithet of Hermes.〔Scholia on ''Iliad'', 2. 842; Eustathius on ''Iliad'', 358. 19; Diogenes Laertius, 8. 1. 31.: ''Pylaios'' was one of the three epithets that Hermes bore as the conveyor of the souls of the dead to the Underworld.〕 ==References==
