Description
In Greek mythology, Menelaus (; Greek: Μενέλαος Menelaos , 'wrath of the people', from Ancient Greek __ μένος (menos) 'vigor, rage, power', and __ λαός (laos) 'people') was a king of Mycenaean (pre-Dorian) Sparta. According to the Iliad , Menelaus was a central figure in the Trojan War, leading the Spartan contingent of the Greek army, under his elder brother Agamemnon, king of Mycenae. Prominent in both the Iliad and Odyssey , Menelaus was also popular in Greek vase painting and Greek tragedy, the latter more as a hero of the Trojan War than as a member of the doomed House of Atreus.
