	Patrocles - LoveToKnow 1911
		The only information as to his work (even the title is unknown) is derived from Strabo.
		After the death of Seleucus, Patrocles was sent by his successor Antiochus to put down a revolt in Asia Minor, and lost his life in an engagement with the Bithynians.

		He was a native of the city of Tricassinum (now the city of Troyes in France) and led a pious Christian life: he loved to pray, to read the Holy Scriptures, to fast and to be charitable to the poor.
		Patrocles disdained idol-worship saying that the emperor himself was a beggar.
		Soldiers led him to the banks of the River Sequanum (now the Seine), but suddenly their eyes were beclouded, and Patrocles walked across the river on the water and began to pray on an hill on the other river-bank.

		For the second part he had Patrocles, and Aristobulus, who described the campaigns of Alexander, Eratosthenes, Herodotus, and Posidonius ; and for the third the historians of the Mithridatic War.
		His description of India is very imperfect as a geographical description, but it contains much valuable matter, particularly about the people, which he derived from the historians of Alexander and of the campaigns of Seleucus in India.
		Patrocles, Aristobulus, and Nearchus, the two last of whom we know how to estimate by the aid of Arrian, he judiciously made his chief authorities.

		Patrocles is the stand-in for Achilles closest relationship.
		So his revenge is not just for Patrocles' death, but for his own as well, for his own mortality.
		His extreme anger seems now to be the anger and the frustration at not being able to control one's own destiny, at not being able to be immortal.

	Trojan-War
		In the ensuing battle, Hector, another son of Priam and the greatest warrior of the Trojans, thinking he was fighting Achilles kills Patrocles and strips him of the armor discovering in the process his mistake.
		Achilles sets the body on the funeral pyre but vows not to hold the funeral until he is avenged and Hector is dead.
		Overwhelmed by the death of his beloved Patrocles and by his own failure to protect him, Achilles returns to the war, and in single combat slays Hector.

		I was annoyed that they left out the Patrocles plot concerning Achilles, and made Hector less than he should have been.
		Hector was a hero for whom the only equal was Achilles, and it was only Patrocles' death that spurred Achilles to confront him after his tiff with Agamemnon.
		I was also quite amused to find out that the "political" reason for tension between the Greeks and the Trojans was Troy's contol of access to Byzantium.

	But Patrocles Died First... by morgana
		I remembered the line from the film 'but Patrocles died first...' and then I wondered what would happen if Alexander were unable to fight and he had to send Hephaistion into battle instead.
		Does he really think he is Achilles?" Their 'I am your Patrocles,' and "I am your Achilles' had started off as a childhood game, but had turned serious later on.
		Patrocles had died when he had taken his lover's place, Hephaistion wouldn't — Hephaistion would succeed where Patrocles had failed.

	Achilles
		After doing so, Achilles becomes furious and refuses to fight or to have his men fight, instead sulking in his tent, only letting his closest friends be by him.
		He still won't go back into battle, but he'll let his best friend Patrocles take his suit of armor, his chariots, and his army and go into battle in his place.
		He also warns Patrocles to stay away from the gates of Troy, for fear that he might be injured.

	"This is the story of the wrath of Achilles." (Spoilers for myth, S6, future) -- Buffy Trollop Central
		Achilles, the greatest warrior (the "big gun")of the Greek forces, is sitting out the combat -- long story but basically he felt he was dissed by the other Greek leaders.
		Patrocles, moved by sympathy for the beleaguered Greeks, volunteers to put on Achilles' armor and pretend to be that hero to try to deter Hector.
		There is a set of funeral games, parallels, between the rituals for Patrocles and Hector.

	Thetis Rising from the Sea by BANKS, Thomas
		Presumably in 1778 Banks began work on his marble relief of Thetis Rising from the Sea with her nymphs to comfort Achilles on the death of Patrocles.
		Achilles and his best friend Patrocles had gone to the Trojan War together.
		However, whereas the group around the rising Thetis fits within the oval frame, the figures of Achilles and Patrocles form a stark contrast in their angular poses.

		Scholars believed that this was the last resting place of Achilles and Patrocles and he was eager to get closer to it.

		Patrocles, Achilles' lover, was also said to have found his last resting place here.

	EUTHYDEMUS by Plato, Part 12
		When the monster was growing troublesome he called Iolaus, his nephew, to his help, who ably succoured him; but if my Iolaus, who is my brother Patrocles [the statuary], were to come, he would only make a bad business worse.
		Well then, I said, I can only reply that Iolaus was not my nephew at all, but the nephew of Heracles; and his father was not my brother Patrocles, but Iphicles, who has a name rather like his, and was the brother of Heracles.
		Yes, I said, he is my half-brother, the son of my mother, but not of my father.

		In the Iliad, he is Achilles’ closest companion, and his death and funeral are central to the whole story.
		In the A&E rendering, Patrocles does not appear at all.
		In this summer’s Brad Pitt version, Patrocles is Achilles’ “cousin.” But in Homer’s day, it would have been understood clearly that Patrocles was Achilles’ lover—a tie made explicit later by Aeschylus in his drama, "Myrmidons" and by Shakespeare in “Troilus and Cressida”.

	A new kind of mutation could explain numerous phenotypic variations in various species
		It appears, therefore, that this new kind of mutation, discovered while studying sheep, could contribute significantly to the phenotypic variation observed in many species — among which humans — including the hereditary predisposition to various diseases.
		Researchers at ULg have thus produced a database available online that compiles all these mutations (the Patrocles database: http://www.patrocles.org).
		It will assist researchers around the world in discovering similar phenomena for other phenotypes including hereditary diseases.

		They also took with them a few men from Cythera whom they thought it safest to remove.

		Hector's slaying of Patrocles was what inspired Achilles to kill him.
		(You see, Achilles was a Spartan, and the Spartan army was made up of pairs of lovers, to encourage protectiveness and vengefullness, depending on how the fighting went -- and Patrocles was Achilles's "buddy".)
		Is Helen taken back or does she run off with fancy lad?
