=== Other works === Besides ''The Sack of Troy'', the entries of the Suda (T 1111 and 1112) attribute to Triphiodorus two more poems: ''Marathoniaca'' (''{{lang|grc|Μαραθωνιακά}}''), probably narrating how Theseus defeated the bull of Marathon; a ''Story of Hippodamea'' (''{{lang|grc|Τὰ κατὰ Ἱπποδάμειαν}}''), on one of the females of this name (e.g. the daughter of King Oenomaus, who killed all her suitors in a chariot race until Pelops defeated him). The Suda also mentions two grammatical works: the ''[[Lipogram]]matic Odyssey'' (probably a re-writing of the ''Odyssey'' suppressing a letter in each of the books: α in book 1, β in book 2 and so on) and a ''Paraphrase of Homer’s Comparisons'' (''{{lang|grc|Παράφρασις τῶν Ὁμήρου παραβόλων}}''), a study of the long comparisons in the Homeric poems (since {{lang|grc|παραβολή}} is a long simile).
