Antinous drowned in the Nilus. (D.C. 69.11) It is not known whether his death was the result of accident, suicide, murder, or religious sacrifice.

If speaking of Antinous in The Odyssey, he was shot by an arrow through the throat by Odysseus with his mighty bow, while Antinous was about to eat an apple.

-In The Odyssey it clearly says Antinous dies while taking a drink of wine.

"With that he pointed the bitter arrow at Antinous. Now he was about raising to his lips a fair two-eared chalice of gold, and behold, he was handling it to drink of the wine"
