text: # Medesicaste
  
  In Greek mythology, the name Medesicaste (Ancient Greek: Μηδεσικάστη) refers to two women of the Trojan royal house:
  
  * Medesicaste, a daughter of Laomedon and thus a sister of Priam. Together with her sisters Aethilla and Astyoche, she was taken captive by the Greeks after the end of the Trojan War; the three sisters set fire to the Greek ships, causing the crew to remain and settle at the place they were staying at (either Italy or Thrace).
  * Medesicaste, an illegitimate daughter of Priam and wife of Imbrius.
