myrmidon
One of a fierce tribe or troop who accompanied Achilles, their king, in the War.
(quote-book)|passage=The Myrmidons were the soldiers of Achilles, in the Trojan war. From them all zealous and unscrupulous followers of a political chief are called by that name, down to this day. But the origin of the Myrmidons would not give one the idea of a fierce and bloody race, but rather of a laborious and peaceful one.
The ancestral hero of the Myrmidon tribe, son of Zeus and Eurymedusa.
