'''Patroclus''' was the son of [[Menoetius]], and childhood friend and brother-in-arms of [[Achilles]]. Critics have long speculated on the exact nature of the relationship between Patroclus and Aeneas; for years the traditional assumption was that they were simply friends, but such [[queer theory]] scholars as Teresa de Lauretis have pointed to unusually intimate textual clues that indicate that perhaps the two were intimately involved, a situation that would not have been uncommon at the time of the epic.  Patroclus was killed by [[Hector]] at the gates of [[Troy]] during the [[Trojan War]].
