ΠΕΡΙΛΗΨΗ
Son of the seer Thestor, Calchas was related through his father to a family of reputed seers and embodied the ‘stratomantis’ par excellence during the Trojan War. A survey through his activities before the Trojan war, during the siege and the sack of Troy and his founding of cities during his travels around Asia Minor after the fall of Troy, allows us to explore changes of his persona in the epics and other archaic poetry. |
