Laogonus

In Greek mythology, Laogonus (Ancient Greek: Δαογόνον or Λαόγονον) may refer to the following personages:

Laogonus, an Achaean warrior who participated in the Trojan War. He was slain by the Amazon Derinoe.[1]
Laogonus, the "bold" son of the Trojan priest Onetor[2] and a soldier who fought during the siege of Troy. He was killed by Meriones, a Cretan leader, who smote him beneath his jaw under the ear.[3]
Laogonus, another Trojan warrior who defended the city of Ilium. He was the son of Bias, son King Priam, and brother of Dardanus[4]. Laogonus and his brother were slayed by the hero Achilles during the battle. The latter thrust them both from their chariot to the ground, smiting the one with a cast of his spear and the other with his sword in close fight.[5]
