Elymus, son of Anchises, was a Trojan warrior who accompanied Aeneas.1 He wore a chaplet and lay on high-piled cushions, breathing out fumes of wine during his sleep.2 Together with Aeneas, he disembarked at Aegesta in Sicily.1 The pair then took possession of shade-of-eryx/">Eryx and Lilybaeus.1
His fate ended when his head fell back and he sought Gorge with quivering eyes.2 Elymus left behind a son named Aeanus.
