Antiloque

In the Greek Mythology, Antiloque (in Greek old Ἀντίλοχος / Antílokhos ) is the oldest son of Nestor (king of Pylos) and of Anaxibie (or Eurydice), brother in particular of Thrasymédès and Pisitratos.

It is one of the applicants of Helene, and takes share with the Trojan War with his father and his Thrasymédès brother. It counts among the good warriors, and makes seven victims in the Trojan camp. Close friend of Achilles, it is him which brings to him the news of dead of Patrocle. He takes part in the funeral Jeux in the honor of Patrocle and gains the race of tanks in front of Ménélas. This one however protests, because indeed, Antiloque cheated according to the councils of its father; he excuses himself and the first price gives to him. It also takes part in the race on foot, where it finishes last.

During the catch of Troy, Antiloque is killed by Memnon whereas it protects his father. It is then buried at Achille and of Patrocle to the White Île.
