Best Answer

When Troy was taken, many Trojan women were made captives, and Cassandra was awarded to Agamemnon, who brought her as a concubine to Mycenae. But on his return, he and her new concubine were murdered by Aegisthus and Clytaemnestra, who had become lovers. Aegisthus became then king of Mycenae.
