supports: The Iliad ("", in Classical Attic; sometimes referred to as the "Song of Ilion" or "Song of Ilium") is an ancient Greek epic poem in dactylic hexameter, traditionally attributed to Homer. Set during the Trojan War, the ten-year siege of the city of Troy (Ilium) by a coalition of Greek states, it tells of the battles and events during the weeks of a quarrel between King Agamemnon and the warrior Achilles. Hecuba (also "Hecabe", "Hécube"; "Hekáb") was a queen in Greek mythology, the wife of King Priam of Troy during the Trojan War, with whom she had 19 children. These children included several major characters of Homer's "Iliad" such as the warriors Hector and Paris and the prophetess Cassandra. In Greco-Roman mythology, Aeneas (Greek: , "Aineías", possibly derived from Greek meaning "praised") was a Trojan hero, the son of the prince Anchises and the goddess Venus (Aphrodite). His father was a first cousin of King Priam of Troy (both being grandsons of Ilus, founder of Troy), making Aeneas a second cousin to Priam's children (such as Hector and Paris). He is a character in Greek mythology and is mentioned in Homer's "Iliad". Aeneas receives full treatment in Roman mythology, most extensively in Virgil's "Aeneid," where he is an ancestor of Romulus and Remus. He became the first true hero of Rome. Snorri Sturlason identifies him with the Norse Æsir Vidarr. In Greek mythology, Cisseus was a Thracian king and father of Theano, the wife of Antenor, as related in Homer's "Iliad". His wife was Telecleia, a daughter of King Ilus of Troy. Athena (Attic Greek: , "Athn", or , "Athnaia"; Epic: , "Athnai"; Doric: , "Athn") or Athene (Ionic: , "Athn"), often given the epithet Pallas, is the goddess of wisdom, craft, and war in ancient Greek religion and mythology. Minerva is the Roman goddess identified with Athena. Athena is known for her calm temperament, as she moves slowly to anger. She is noted to have only fought for just reasons, and would not fight without a purpose. Italy, officially the Italian Republic, is a unitary parliamentary republic in Europe. Located in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea, Italy shares open land borders with France, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, San Marino and Vatican City. Italy covers an area of and has a largely temperate seasonal climate and Mediterranean climate; due to its shape, it is often referred to in Italy as "lo Stivale" (the Boot). With 61 million inhabitants, it is the fourth most populous EU member state. In Greek mythology, Telecleia () was a daughter of King Ilus of Troy, and the wife of King Cisseus of Thrace. She is therefore the mother of Theano, wife to Antenor, and also a possible mother of Hecuba. Troy ("Troia" and , "Ilion", or , "Ilios"; and ; Hittite: "Wilusha" or "Truwisha") was a city situated in the far northwest of the region known in late Classical antiquity as Asia Minor, now known as Anatolia in modern Turkey, near (just south of) the southwest mouth of the Dardanelles strait and northwest of Mount Ida. The present-day location is known as Hisarlik. It was the setting of the Trojan War described in the Greek Epic Cycle, in particular in the "Iliad", one of the two epic poems attributed to Homer. Metrical evidence from the "Iliad" and the "Odyssey" suggests that the name ("Ilion") formerly began with a digamma: ("Wilion"); this is also supported by the Hittite name for what is thought to be the same city, Wilusa. Agenor ( / dinr / ; Ancient Greek :  ) , son of Antenor and Theano , was a Trojan hero . When Achilles was routing the entire Trojan army , Agenor was the first Trojan to collect his wits and stop fleeing from Achilles ' rampage . Agenor felt ashamed that he was fleeing from a man who was supposedly just as mortal as anyone so he turned to face Achilles . As the Greek hero approached Agenor the latter threw his spear at him , but only hit Achilles ' greaves . After that Achilles sprang at Agenor , but at that moment Apollo carried the Trojan away in a veil of mist to keep Achilles from pursuing him , while Apollo took the form of Agenor to lead Achilles away from the Trojans . This act allowed all the Trojans ( except Hector ) to take cover behind the walls of Troy . Agenor killed two people in the war . According to Pausanias , Agenor was killed by Achilles ' son Neoptolemus when the Achaeans were storming Troy through the Trojan Horse ruse . His picture appears in the great painting in the Lesche of Delphi , by Polygnotus . Theano was the priestess of Athena in Troy.  Life. Theano was the daughter of the Thracian king Cisseus and Telecleia, wife of Antenor, and mother of many sons and a daughter Crino. The household of Antenor and Theano advocated peace and advised Helen's return to the Greeks. Because of their support (some say treason), the Greeks spared their household when they sacked the city. One story has Theano and Antenor sailing with Aeneas to Italy and founding the city of Padua. Another story is that she took the Palladium, an image of Athena that had fallen from the sky and supposedly provided Troy its protection, with her. In Book VI of the Iliad, with Hecuba and the Trojan women, Theano offered a gift and plea to Athena for the life of the city, but was rebuffed. Padua (or ) is a city and "comune" in Veneto, northern Italy. It is the capital of the province of Padua and the economic and communications hub of the area. Padua's population is 214,000. The city is sometimes included, with Venice (Italian "Venezia") and Treviso, in the Padua-Treviso-Venice Metropolitan Area, which has a population of c. 1,600,000.
