Antimache

In Greek mythology, Antimache (Ancient Greek: Ἀντιμάχη) was the queen of Tiryns as wife of King Eurystheus, who tasked Heracles with his Labors. She was of Arcadian descent as the daughter of Amphidamas of Arcadia and the sister of Hippomenes, husband of the heroine Atalanta.[1] Together with her husband Eurystheus, Antimache bore the following children: Admete, Alexander, Iphimedon, Eurybius, Mentor, and Perimedes.[2]

Antimache appears in the 2014 film Hercules, played by Barbara Palvin.[3][4]
