Andromăché

（Ἀνδρομάχη). The daughter of Eëtion, king of the Cilician Thebes, and wife of Hector, by whom she had a son, Scamandrius (Astyanax). On the taking of Troy, her son was hurled from the walls of the city, and she herself fell to the share of Neoptolemus (Pyrrhus), the son of Achilles, who took her to Epirus. She afterwards married Helenus, a brother of Hector, who ruled over Chaonia.
