Agelaus
2. A son of Damastor, and one of the suitors of Penelope. (Hom. Od. 20.321.) In the struggle of Odysseus with the suitors, and after many of them had fallen, Agelaus encouraged and headed those who survived (22.131, 241), until at last he too was struck dead by Odysseus with a javelin. (22.293.)
