Clitus

Clitus (Κλείτος) may refer to:

Clitus (c. 375-328 BC), a Macedonian officer and friend of Alexander the Great. In an argument with Alexander, Clitus compared Alexander to a Persian king, rather than a Greek king, which caused Alexander to run a spear through Clitus and murder him. Alexander regreted this soon after Clitus fell dead to the floor (Plutarch, Life of Alexander). This Clitus is often referred to as "Clitus the Black", to distinguish him from "Clitus the White" (see below).
Clitus the White, a Macedonian officer who rose to prominence after Alexander's death.
Clitus, an Illyrian king.
Clitus, one of the sons of Egypt (Αίγυπτος), murdered by the Danaede Clite (Κλείτη).
Clitus, a Trojan, son of Pisenoros (Πεισήνορος), friend of Polydamantos, whom Teukros killed.
Clitus, son of Mantius, who was abducted by Eos because of his beauty. After his death, he was placed among other immortals.
Clitus, a lover of Pallene (Παλλήνη), daughter of Sithonos (Σίθωνος), king of Thrace. Clitus fought with Dryas to win Pallene, which he succeeded only through the help of Dryas' charioteer. Sithonos found out the truth and wanted to cast his daughter into the fire, but eventually it was put out by a rainstorm Aphrodite had sent. In the end, Sithon forgave the two lovers and married them.
