The Watchman who was waiting for a signal announcing the fall of Troy, in the prologue of Aeschylus’ Agamemnon, originates from the character that Aegisthus ordered to watch out for Agamemnon’s ship in Od. IV 524ss. Starting from this passage, one tries to analyze the way in which Aeschylus knowingly borrows and modifies important elements of Agamemnon’s story of Homer, to adapt them for the spatial requirements of the stage.
