Perimedes (Ancient Greek: Περιμήδης) was a name attributed to several characters in Greek mythology.

  • Perimedes, a prince of Tiryns as son of King Eurystheus and Antimache, daughter of AmphidamasofArcadia. He was the brother of Admete,[2] Alexander, Iphimedon, Mentor and Eurybius. Perimedes was killed by the Athenians in the war that ensued when Athens refused to deliver the Heracleidae up to Eurystheus.[3] Alternately, Perimedes, along with his brothers Eurybius and Eurypylus, was slain by Heracles when at a sacrificial meal in honor of his Twelve Labors being completed they served him a smaller portion of meat than they did for themselves.[4]
  • Perimedes, father of the Phocian Schedius who participated in the Trojan War.[5]
  • Perimedes, a defender of Troy from Smintheus's grove who was killed by Neoptolemus.[6]
  • Perimedes, a singer from Argos, said to have had many disciples.[7]
  • Perimedes, one of Odysseus's companions during his return voyage from Troy according to the Odyssey. He is very loyal to Odysseus throughout the story.[8]
  • Perimedes, one of the SuitorsofPenelope who came from Same along with other 22 wooers.[9] He, with the other suitors, was killed by Odysseus with the aid of Eumaeus, Philoetius, and Telemachus.[10]
