He was the giant son of Telamon. He had great strength, but he was unintelligent and slow of speech. He got the better of the contest in single combat with Hector. He was mad with anger and disappointment and killed himself after he learned that Achilles' armor was awarded to Odysseus. Later in the underworld, it is described, Odysseus encountered Ajax' shade and tried to placate him. But since Ajax was not a man of words and still hated Odysseus' glibness, he stalked away sullenly in speechless anger.
