Lycophron, son of Mastor, was a follower of Ajax who originated from the island of Cythera.1 He lived with Ajax because he had committed a homicide in his home region.1 Ajax and his companions honored him with the same respect they gave their parents.1

Later, Hector struck him on the head with a spear, killing him instantly.1 Lycophron fell dead from the ship's prow to the ground after being hit.1 Accounts differ on his death, as Ovid implies that Lycophron was killed by an arrow.2 He is identified as the father of Lycurgus.3
