Eurymedon
3. A son of Ptolemaeus, and charioteer of Agamemnon; his tomb was shewn at Mycenae. (Hom. Il. 4.228; Paus. 2.16.5.) There are two more mythical personages of this name. (Hom. Od. 7.58; Apollod. 3.1.2.) Eurymedon signifies a being ruling far and wide, and occurs as a surname of several divinities, such as Poseidon (Pind. O. 8.31), Perseus (Apollon. 4.1514), and Hermes.
