Son of Creon whom Achilles sent with Nestor's sons, Meges, Thoas, Meriones, and Melanippus to fetch the seven tripods and other gifts from Agamemnon's hut — distinct from Lycomedes king of Scyros (`lycomedes-skyros`).1
When Achilles declared he would arm for war though Hector still held Patroclus' body, he took to him the sons of glorious Nestor, and Meges son of Phyleus, and Thoas and Meriones and Lycomedes son of Creon, and Melanippus; and they went their way to the hut of Agamemnon. Then straightway in one moment was the word said and the deed fulfilled: seven tripods bare they from the hut, even as he had promised.2
Homer attests Lycomedes son of Creon only as an Achaean messenger at Troy with no home polis named — distinct from Lycomedes of Scyros (`lycomedes-skyros`). Residence stays deferred.3
