Ajax's skeleton in his tomb
Ajax was a legendary hero in Greek myths, and a participant in the Trojan War. He died by his own hand at the end of the war.
By the 5th century BCE, when the Spartan misthios, Kassandra, explored the sanctuary dedicated to Ajax on the Isle of Salamis, the sanctuary had been rendered a ruin, and bandits had set up camp there.[1]
Trivia
- In the myths Ajax’s body is never brought back to Salamis from Troy and 2nd century geographer Pausanias would later attribute a giant skeleton found near Sigeion to that of Ajax.
Appearance
- Assassin's Creed: Odyssey (skeleton only)
