In Greek mythology, Meges son of Phyleus (Mégês Phyleïdês) commands the men of Dulichium and the Echinades in the Trojan War, leading forty (or sixty) ships and sometimes an Epean contingent that had migrated with his father. A suitor of Helen and one of the warriors said to enter the Wooden Horse, he is a steady Iliadic fighter whose death is variously placed at Troy or on the homeward voyage.

I.Family and contingent
Meges is son of King Phyleus of Dulichium; his mother is variously Eustyoche, Ctimene, Ctesimache, Hagnete, or Timandra. A half-sister Eurydameia is mother of Cleitus and Euchenor by the Corinthian seer Polyidus.
Homer assigns him the Dulichians and the sacred Echinades; later notices add Epeans who had crossed with Phyleus. Apollodorus lists him among Helen's suitors.
II.At Troy
In the Iliad he slays Pedaeus and others; Dolops' spear fails against a corselet Euphetes of Ephyra once gave Phyleus. He helps gather gifts for Achilles. Quintus of Smyrna puts him in the Horse; Dictys has him fall at Troy, while Pausanias knew a painting of him wounded by Admetus son of Augeas at the sack. Tzetzes sends him to die off Euboea with Prothous and others.
The atlas id meges-dulichium is this Phyleid commander — not a later historical Meges.
