His cousin Achilles. Achilles was killed so Ajax went to retrieve his body. When Ajax had brought his body back he thought that his cousin a warrior who had died in battle should be buried with his armor.
When Ajax had journeyed back to the battle field, the armor was gone. Going into the city Ajax found out the Greeks where giving his cousin’s silver plated armor to Oddyseus.
Ajax went mad with rage. He went to a close farm field filled with sheep. Took his sword seeing only the Greeks and Odysseus and killed all the of sheep in a bloody rage.
Thinking he’d killed all those people. Ajax took his bloody sword from the sheep’s limp and lifeless body. Wrapped both sweating hands around the gold hilt. Held it up high and stabbed himself in the stomach. Killing himself along with the sheep.
