  • In Greek mythology, Mégês Phyleïdês (Greek: Μέγης Φυλεΐδης) was a son of Phyleus; his mother's name is variously given as either Eustyoche, Ctimene, Timandra, Hagnete, or Ctesimache. He was one of Helen's suitors and commanded the armies of the Echinadians and the Dulichians during the Trojan War, having summoned forty or sixty ships; he also led a contingent of Epeans who had once migrated to Dulichium together with his father. Meges was credited with killing a number of opponents, including Pedaeus (a son of Antenor), Croesmus, Amphiclus, Itymoneus, Agelaus, Eurymenes, and Deiopites. Dolops attempted to strike him with a spear but the corselet Meges was wearing, a gift for his father from Euphetes of Ephyra, saved his life. Meges helped Odysseus to collect gifts for Achilles. He was one of the men to enter the Trojan Horse. According to Dictys Cretensis, Meges fell at Troy. Pausanias mentions a painting of him wounded in the arm by a Trojan, Admetes the son of Augeas. Tzetzes relates that Meges, along with Prothous and a number of others, perished at Euboea.
