In Greek mythology, [[Astyanax]] (/əˈstaɪ.ənæks/; Ancient Greek: [[Ἀστυάναξ]] Astyánax, "[[protector]] of the [[city]]") was the son of [[Hector]], the crown prince of [[Troy]], and his wife, Princess [[Andromache]] of Cilician Thebe. His birth name was [[Scamandrius]] (in Greek: [[Σκαμάνδριος]] Skamandrios, after the river [[Scamander]]), but the people of Troy nicknamed him Astyanax (i.e. high king, or overlord of the city), because he was the son of the city's great defender (Iliad VI, 403) and the heir apparent's firstborn son.

In Euripides's The Trojan Women (719 ff), the herald Talthybius reveals to Andromache that Odysseus has convinced the council to have the child thrown from the walls, and the child is in this way killed. In Seneca's version of The Trojan Women, the prophet Calchas declares that Astyanax must be thrown from the walls if the Greek fleet is to be allowed favorable winds (365–70), but once led to the tower, the child himself leaps off the walls (1100–3). For Hector's mother, Hecuba, Astyanax was the only hope and consolation, and his death's announcement was a terrible climax of the catastrophe. Other sources for the story of the Sack of Troy and Astyanax's death can be found in the Bibliotheca (Pseudo-Apollodorus), Hyginus (Fabula 109), Tryphiodorus (Sack of Troy 644–6).
