Oeax was a figure in Roman Mythology. Oeax told Clytemnestra about Agamemnon bringing back Cassandra, a Trojan concubine, which led to Clytemnestra plotting to kill Agamemnon.[1][2][3]
Genealogy
His father is generally said to be Nauplius[4] but his mother varies from telling to telling. Oeax's mother has been variously told as Clymene,[4] Hesione,[5] or Philyra}.[6] He was also the brother of Palamedes, a Greek warrior at the Trojan War.
Mythology
Because he was angry at the Greeks for killing Palamedes at Troy, he tried to banish Orestes after Orestes murdered his mother.[7][2]
