O to Oresteia Orestes to Ozolian

Oileus

One of the Argonauts.

When the Argonauts came to the Island of Ares they were attacked by birds which dropped their feathers like daggers; Oileus was wounded by the feathers but the Argonauts began pounding on their shields and frightened away the horrible birds; Oileus and his wife, Eriopis, were the parents of Lesser Aias (not Ajax); Medon was another son of Oileus (but not by Eriopis) and the half-brother of Aias.
