In der griechischen Mythologie war Lykomedes, auch bekannt als Lykurg, während des Trojanischen Krieges der bedeutendste König der Dolopianer auf der Insel Skyros in der Nähe von Euböa.
Plutarch sagt, dass Lykomedes Theseus tötete, der im Exil auf seine Insel geflohen war, indem er ihn von einer Klippe stieß, weil er befürchtete, dass Theseus ihn entthronen würde, da die Inselbewohner den Gast mit großer Ehre behandelten. Einige erzählten, dass die Ursache dieser Gewalt darin lag, dass Lykomedes die Ländereien, die Theseus in Skyros hatte, nicht aufgeben wollte, oder dass Lykomedes die Gunst von Menestheus gewinnen wollte.
Auf Wunsch von Thetis versteckte Lycomedes Achilles in weiblicher Verkleidung unter seinen eigenen Töchtern. Am Hof des Lykomedes hatte Achilleus eine Affäre mit Deidamia, die zur Geburt von Neoptolemus (Pyrrhus) führte. Als Odysseus Achilles aus seiner Verkleidung herausholte und ihn nach Troja brachte, blieb Neoptolemus bei seinem Großvater, bis auch er in den späteren Phasen des Krieges herbeigerufen wurde.
