Thymoetes
# Thymoetes

In Greek mythology, there were at least three people named Thymoetes (/θɪˈmiːtiz/; Ancient Greek: Θυμοίτης Thumoítēs).

* Thymoetes, one of the elders of Troy (also spelled Thymoetus) and also a Trojan prince as the son of King Laomedon. A soothsayer had predicted that, on a certain day, a boy would be born by whom Troy would be destroyed. On that very day Paris was born to King Priam of Troy, and Munippus to Thymoetes. Priam ordered Munippus and his mother Cilla to be killed in order to prevent the prophecy from being fulfilled while sparing his own son. It is believed that Thymoetes, in order to avenge his family, advised to draw the wooden horse into the city.
* Thymoetes, an Athenian hero, son of Oxyntes, king of Attica. He was the last Athenian king descended from Theseus. He was succeeded by Melanthus (according to Pausanias, overthrown by him).
* Thymoetes, a Trojan and a companion of Aeneas, who was slain by Turnus.
