Aulis
|
The seer Calchas told Agamemnon that Artemis was angry and that the only way he would be able to appease her was to sacrifice his daughter Iphigenia. With the conniving of Odysseus and perhaps Diomedes, Agamemnon arranged to have Clytemnestra bring Iphigenia to Aulis, ostensibly to marry Achilles, but in reality to be sacrificed for the war effort.
