In Homer s Hlliadn he described as of great stature d an colossal frame, second only to Achilles in stron 'th and b Q, rzivery He engaged Hector in Single combat and, with thc- :iid of Athene rescued the body of Achilles from the hands of the Trojans. ln the competition between him 'ind Od 'esciis it I . 5.41.3 e ,or tie zirrmitir of Achilles, Agamemnon, at the instigation of Atliene, ri-.mrded the prize to Odysseus., This so enraged Ajax that if caused his death. Accord- ing to a later and more definite sttirjf, tmct-med by Sophocles as the basis of his drama, this disappointment drove him madg he rushed out ,of his tent and fell upon the flocks of sheep in the camp under the impression that they were the Greeksg on coming to his senses he slew himself with the sword which he had received as a present from Hector. From his blood sprang zz red flower which bore on its leaves the initial letters of his name AI, also expression of lament. He was the tutelary hero of the island of Salamis where he had a temple and an image, and where a festival called Aianteia was celebrated in his honor. 1 K.,. , - J A l o e, lfeu
