Argos played a role in the mythology of the [[Trojan War]] at which time it was said to be ruled by [[Diomedes]]. "Argos" could also refer to the entire Argolid, which was the kingdom of [[Agamemnon]].  As Agamemnon was the commander of the entire Greek force, "Argos" also could refer very generally to all of allied Greece during the Trojan War.  The kingdom of [[Achilles]] was sometimes refered to as "Pelasgian Argos".
