(Redirected from Oicles)
In Greek mythology, Oecles /ˈɛkliːz/ (Ancient Greek: Οἰκλῆς) or Oecleus /ˈɛkˌluːs/ or /ˈɛkˌljuːs/ (Οἰκλεύς)[1] was an Argive king, father of Amphiaraus, son of Mantius or Antiphates and grandson of Melampus.[2][3][4][5]
He helped Heracles fight Laomedon and/or the sea monster attacking Troy and died in the battle.[6][7] Others, however, report that he was buried in Arcadia.[8]
