Ἑκάβη (Hekabē; "Hecuba") is a Greek tragedy written by Euripides circa 424 bc. The play is set after the Trojan War, but before the Greeks have departed Troy. The central figure is Hecuba, formerly Queen of the now-fallen city. It depicts Hecuba's grief over the death of her daughter Polyxena, and the revenge she takes for the murder of her youngest son Polydorus.
