Proper name: PHILOMELEIDES (Φιλομηλείδης), a king in Lesbos who compelled his guests to engage with him in a contest of wrestling, and was conquered by Odysseus (Hom. Od. iv. 343, xvii. 134). Some commentators take this name to be a metronymic derived from Philomela, No. 2. (Wikisource | public domain)
