The fate of Achilles' armor was the source of a feud between Odysseus and Ajax the Greater. They both gave speeches extolling their bravery to the Trojan prisoners and they, in the end, decided that Odysseus was more deserving. Ajax cursed Odysseus, which angered Athena, and he eventually killed himself in grief. Odysseus eventually gave the armor to Neoptolemus, Achilles' son.
