Deidamia (daughter Of Lycomedes)
In Greek mythology, Deidamia (; Ancient Greek: Δηϊδάμεια ''Deïdameia'') is a daughter of King Lycomedes, who lives on the island of Scyros. She marries Achilles, by whom she becomes the mother of Neoptolemus. Following the Trojan War, her son gives her in marriage to Helenus of Troy. She is sometimes said to have a second son, Oneiros, or to have only been Neoptolemus's nurturer (rather than his mother). Mythology Deidamia was one of King Lycomedes' seven daughters with whom Achilles was concealed.

Euripides
Euripides () was a Greek tragedy, tragedian of classical Athens. Along with Aeschylus and Sophocles, he is one of the three ancient Greek tragedians for whom any plays have survived in full. Some ancient scholars attributed ninety-five plays to him, but the ''Suda'' says it was ninety-two at most. Of these, eighteen or nineteen have survived more or less complete (''Rhesus (play), Rhesus'' is suspect). There are many fragments (some substantial) of most of his other plays. More of his plays have survived intact than those of Aeschylus and Sophocles together, partly because his popularity grew as theirs declinedMoses Hadas, ''Ten Plays by Euripides'', Bantam Classic (2006), Introduction, p. ixhe became, in the Hellenistic Age, a cornerstone of ancient literary education, along with Homer, Demosthenes, and Menander.L.P.E.Parker, ''Euripides: Alcestis'', Oxford University Press (2007), Introduction p. lx Euripides is identified with theatrical innovations that have profoundly influ ...
