the hero of the Trojan army. He was the son of King Priam and Hecuba. His wife was Andromache, the daughter of the king of Thebes. While Achilles, the Greek, was sulking in his tent, refusing to fight, Hector slew Archilles' dearest friend, Patroclus. This aroused Achilles, who presented himself at the head of his men and rushed into the thick of the fray. Achilles slew Hector with his own hand, tied him by the feet to the tail of his chariot, and dragged him around the walls of Troy. In his grief the aged King Priam went in person to the Grecian camp and begged the boon of his son's body. This he received and took back to the beleaguered city, where Hector was buried with great pomp. Our account of Hector is derived from Homer's Iliad. Homer writes as a Greek, yet the valor and manly qualities of the Trojan Hector arouse the poet's admiration. See Achilles ; Troy
