Antiphon (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Antiphon (; Ancient Greek: Άντιφόν) was one of the comrades of the Greek hero Odysseus.

Mythology

When Odysseus and 12 of his crew came into the port of Sicily, the Cyclops Polyphemus seized and confined them. The monster then slew Antiphon and five others, namely: Euryleon, Apheidas, Kepheus, Stratios and Menetos, while the remaining six survived.
