Rhesos (2)Rhesus

A Thrakian (Thracian) commander who died at the hands of Odysseus and Diomedes.

In The Iliad, the Trojans finally seem to gain the advantage in the war and were on the verge of pushing the Greeks back into the sea when Odysseus and Diomedes snuck into the Trojan encampment and killed Rhesos, many of his troops and stole his prize horses.
