Orsilocus, one of twin sons of Diokles, was a great man among the Danaans. As he grew up, he and his brother followed along with the Argives to Troy. He helped to win honor for Agamemnon and Menelaus {see planets  (911) and  (1647), respectively}, before being killed by Aeneas {see planet  (1172)}. (M 25444) _ _.
