The Taphians

Mentes, the man Athene pretends to be when she first arrives in Ithaka, is the ruler of the Taphians. 


Amphimedon 

In the Underworld, he tells the story of the slaughter to Achilleus and Agamemnon. It's clear from his version that the suitors are none-too-repentant of their ways: he accuses Penelope of "planning our death and black destruction/ with this other stratagem of her heart's devising" (24.127-28). 


Amphinomos

Sometimes spelled Amphinomus. The good suitor, relatively speaking: his "heart saddened within him, shaking his head, for in his spirit he saw the evil" (18.153-54). Penelope seems to recognize this, as does Odysseus; he even warns Amphinomos to get out before the slaughter. Unfortunately, Athene wants everyone to die. So that's that.
