Iphigenia is a character from Greek mythology, known as the daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra. Her story is primarily told in the context of the Trojan War, where her father sacrifices her to appease the goddess Artemis and ensure safe passage for the Greek fleet to Troy.
In some versions of the myth, Iphigenia is saved by Artemis at the last moment and taken to Tauris, where she becomes a priestess. Her tale explores themes of sacrifice, fate, and the complexities of familial loyalty, making it a significant narrative in ancient Greek literature.
