Eudoros was a demigod, the son of Hermes and Polymele, who danced in Artemis' choir. Polymele's father Phylas brought him up after she married Echekles.
Mythology
According to the Iliad, Eudoros commanded ten penteconters and five hundred Myrmidons. In Book XVI of the Iliad, when Patroclus readies Achilles' men, Homer talks about him for fourteen lines – more than any of the other commanders in this passage. He is also the second most notable of the five, beaten only by Phoenix. Eudoros was very fast, and a good fighter.[1]
