Laogonus

In Greek mythology, Laogonus (Ancient Greek: Δαογόνον or Λαόγονον) may refer to the following personages:

• Laogonus, an Achaean warrior who participated in the Trojan War. He was slain by the Amazon Derinoe.^[1]
• Laogonus, the "bold" son of the Trojan priest Onetor^[2] and a soldier who fought during the siege of Troy. He was killed by Meriones, a Cretan leader, who smote him beneath his jaw under the ear.^[3]
• Laogonus, another Trojan warrior who defended the city of Ilium. He was the son of Bias, son King Priam, and brother of Dardanus.^[4] Laogonus and his brother were slayed by the hero Achilles during the battle. The latter thrust them both from their chariot to the ground, smiting the one with a cast of his spear and the other with his sword in close fight.^[5]
