Common card · No. 276988

In Greek mythology, Deidamia (; Ancient Greek: Δηιδάμεια, romanized: Dēidámeia) is a daughter of King Lycomedes, who lives on the island of Scyros. She marries Achilles, by whom she becomes the mother of Neoptolemus. Following the Trojan War, her son gives her in marriage to Helenus, a Trojan captive. She is sometimes said to have a second son, Oneiros, or to have only been Neoptolemus's nurturer (rather than his mother).
