ὁμοῦ ἦν καὶ ἔχειν τὴν πόλιν καὶ τὸ γένος ὅλον μετὰ τῆς πόλεως → it was much the same thing to have the city and to have the whole race together with the city

Briseis (/braɪˈsiːɪs/; Ancient Greek: Βρισηίς Brīsēís, pronounced [briːsɛːís]) ("daughter of Briseus"), also known as Hippodameia (Ἱπποδάμεια, [hippodámeːa]), is a significant character in the Iliad. Her role as a status symbol is at the heart of the dispute between Achilles and Agamemnon that initiates the plot of Homer's epic. She was married to Mynes, a son of the King of Lyrnessus, until the Achaeans sacked her city and was given to Achilles shortly before the events of the poem. Being forced to give Briseis to Agamemnon, Achilles refused to reenter the battle.
