Friendly reminder that "Briseis" is a patronymic that means "daughter of Brises" and "Chryseis" means "daughter of Chryses"

Some scholia of the Iliad mention that Briseis's actual name is Ἱπποδάμεια (Hippodameia) and Chryseis's name is Ἀστυνόμη (Astynome)

Ἱπποδάμεια -> ἵππος (horse) + δαμάζειν (to tame) = Tamer of Horses

Ἀστυνόμη -> ἄστυ (city) + νόμος (law) = Law of the City

Both names are also apparently referencing other figures in Greek mythology including but not limited to Hippodameia of Oinomaus and Astynome one of the Niobides.

That's it.

could we get some of those cute banners for the homeric ladies!

It's actually disgusting and borderline misogynistic when people only talk about the enslaved trojan / dardanian women in relation to their captors or just men in general and never as their own people but I fear some people wouldn't like to hear that

#greek mythology #tagamemnon #classics #the iliad #this is about briseis cause I noticed SOME people only talk about her in relation to Achilles or Patroclus and it's actually annoying #however this goes for any of the other enslaved women in the Iliad and post Homeric sources too like #some people also only talk about Andromache in relation to Neoptolemus or Hector so is a pretty common thing in greekmyth spaces I fear #briseis #Andromache #Cassandra #hecuba #chryseis
