He ruled Corinth.
He was ruler of the city-state of Mycenae in the Peloponnese. The best known is Agamemnon.
Agamemnon was born in 1678 B.C. in Mycene.
Agamemnon was not the king of all Greek city-states but was the king of Mycenae, one of the most powerful city-states in ancient Greece. He is best known as a central figure in Homer's "Iliad," where he leads the Greek forces during the Trojan War. His leadership encompassed several allied states rather than a unified rule over all of Greece.
The legendary king of Mycenae was Agamemnon.
There is no solid proof that Agamemnon was real, so he must be regarded as a mythological figure. In the story of the Trojan War, an alliance was formed among the Greek states, each with their own commanders. Agamemnon was in overall command of the expedition against Troy. Agamemnon was also brother to King Menelaus of Sparta and brother in law to Helen of Troy.
