In Greek mythology, the name Laodamia (Λαοδάμεια) referred to:
- Laodamia or Deidamia, daughter of Bellerophon and Philonoe, sister of Hippolochus and Isander and the mother of Sarpedon by Zeus. She was shot by Artemis (that is, died a sudden, instant death) one day when she was weaving.[1][2] Diodorus Siculus makes her the wife of Evander, who was a son of Sarpedon the elder and by her father of Sarpedon the younger.[3]
- Laodamia, daughter of Acastus and Astydameia and the wife of Protesilaus. When her husband fell in the Trojan War, Laodamia committed suicide rather than be without him.[4][5][6]
- Laodamia, daughter of Alcmaeon, wife of Peleus and mother by him of Polydora.[9] But see Antigone (daughter of Eurytion).
- Laodamia, wife of Anticlus.[10] Her husband was one of the men who were hiding in the Trojan Horse.[11]
- Laodamia or Arsinoe, nurse of Orestes. She saved his life by sending him to Strophius after the murder of Agamemnon, whereas Aegisthus killed her own son, taking him for Orestes.[13][14]
- Laodamia, alternate name for Hippodamia (wife of Pirithous) occurring in a red-figure vase painting.[15]
