Agamemnon, the King of Mycenae and a central figure in Greek mythology, is best known for his role in the Trojan War. After the war, he returned home only to be murdered by his wife, Clytemnestra, who sought revenge for his sacrifice of their daughter, Iphigenia, prior to the war. This act of betrayal set off a cycle of vengeance within his family, famously depicted in works such as Aeschylus's "Oresteia." Agamemnon's tragic fate highlights themes of betrayal, revenge, and the consequences of one’s actions in Greek tragedy.
