Tydides hurled next,
the bronze launched from his hand and not for nothing:
hitting Phegeus’ chest between the nipples it pitched him out
behind his team.
– Homer
The Iliad, Book 5, lines 18-21. Diomedes (Tydides) is seen as a very skillful and experienced fighter. Despite having the disadvantage of being dismounted and on foot, he goes against Phegeus riding in his chariot with his brother and kills him with his spear.
