Icon of person Chryseis

In Greek mythology, Chryseis (, Ancient Greek: Χρυσηΐς, romanized: Khrusēís, pronounced [kʰryːsɛːís]) is a Trojan woman, the daughter of Chryses. Chryseis, her apparent name in the Iliad, means simply "Chryses' daughter"; later writers give her real name as Astynome (Ἀστυνόμη). The 12th-century poet Tzetzes describes her to be "very young and thin, with milky skin; had blond hair and small breasts; nineteen years old and still a virgin". As the "golden one" she is also the title-giving character of the Baroque alchemical epic Chryseidos Libri IIII (1631). Read more on Wikipedia

Chryseis is most famous for being the daughter of the king of Lyrnessus. She was captured by Achilles during the Trojan War and given to Agamemnon as a war prize.
