Teucer Teucer In Greek mythology, Teucer (), also Teucrus, Teucros or Teucris (, "Teῦkros"), was the son of King Telamon of Salamis Island and his second wife Hesione, daughter of King Laomedon of Troy. He fought alongside his half-brother, Ajax, in the Trojan War and is the legendary founder of the city of Salamis on Cyprus. Through his mother, Teucer was the nephew of King Priam of Troy and the cousin of Hector and Paris—all of whom he fought against in the Trojan War. During the Trojan War, Teucer was mainly a great archer, who loosed his shafts from behind the
Greek battleship Salamis the Greek complaints, and he ultimately sided with Vulcan, probably in part due to Greek inquiries to Vulcan earlier that year as to the possibility of modernizing the design. Vulcan's response did not satisfy Greek requirements, so the proposal was dropped. In 1928, with the impending recommissioning of the Turkish battlecruiser "Yavuz" (ex-), Greece considered responding positively to an offer from Vulcan to reach a compromise, one option being to complete and modernize "Salamis". The cost of the ship would be absorbed by the war reparations Germany owed Greece for the years 1928 through 1930 and part of 1931. Admiral
