In Greek mythology Stentor (Greek: Στέντωρ; gen.: Στέντορος) was a herald of the Greek forces during the Trojan War. Although he is mentioned only briefly in Homer’s Iliad in which Hera takes Stentor’s character to encourage the Greeks to fight his name has been living in the term stentorian voice meaning loud-voiced for which he was famous: Homer said his voice was as powerful as fifty voices of other men.
