Ajax (1) Greek Son of Telamon, king of Salamis. He was one of the heroes who sailed with the Greeks to the Trojan War. He is represented in Homer's Iliad as second only to Achilles in bravery. Ajax is described as tall and strong, though perhaps slow-witted, prone to rages and madness. He lost the contest for the armor of Achilles and in a fit of despair took his own life. Ajax (2) ("The Lesser") Greek Son of Oileus of Troy; Greek warrior in the Trojan War. Unlike Ajax (1), he was a small man, but swift-footed and a skilled spearman. Ajax the Lesser drowned on his way home to Greece after the fall of Troy. Some say he was a victim of the sea god, Poseidon. Some claim that he was the victim of the goddess Athene.
