Menelaos [r]: From Greek mythology, he was the brother of Agamemnon and husband of Helen of Troy and a Greek king who fought in the Trojan War, and was one of the elite fighters inside the Trojan horse. When prince Paris abducted his wife, this caused the ten-year conflict across the Aegean Sea between the Greek expeditionary force and the warriors of Troy (ancient city).
