Write a short note on the role of Deiphobus in Homer's Iliad.

Deiphobus is a Trojan warrior who is one of the many sons
of Priam. In Iliad 22, Homer describes him as a "tireless speaker"
(Kline translation).

Deiphobus' most significant appearance
in Homer's Iliad occurs in a passage in which he does not actually
appear at all. In Iliad 22, Achilles is chasing Hector around the
walls of Troy. Hector realizes that he is no match for Achilles by himself, but when he
sees Deiphobus, he thinks that together they can face Achilles. Unfortunately for
Hector, this Deiphobus is actually the goddess Athena, who has taken on the form of
Deiphobus in order to trick Hector into stopping. Soon after Hector stops, Deiphobus
vanishes.

Other ancient sources outside of Homer say that
Deiphobus and Paris/Alexander managed to assassinate Achilles (see Dictys of Crete
4.11).

Other sources also tell us that after Paris died,
Deiphobus married Helen, albeit temporarily since Deiphobus was killed during the fall
of Troy.
