The herdsman is a messenger, who supplies the part of the story concerning the capture of Orestes and Pylades by the Taunans. He is one of the men who discovers and surrounds the two strangers. The herdsman's own account of the fight shows the Hellenes better warriors than the barbarians, who fought with stones.
