orphan date March 2010 Thyus in Greek language Greek o or lived 4th century BC was a Achaemenid Empire Persian prince of Paphlagonia in today Turkey who rebelled against Artaxerxes II of Persia Artaxerxes II . Datames , who was his first cousin, endeavoured to persuade him to return to his allegiance but this had no effect, and on one occasion, when Datames had sought a friendly conference with him, Thyus laid a plot for his assassination. Datames escaped the danger through a timely warning given him by his mother, and, on his return to his own government, declared war against Thyus, subdued him, and made him a prisoner together with his wife and children. He then arrayed him in all the insignia of his royal rank, dressed himself in hunter s garb, and, having fastened a rope round Thyus, drove him before him with a cudgel, and brought him in this guise into the presence of Artaxerxes, as if he were a wild beast that he had captured. Cornelius Nepos describes Thyus as a man of huge stature and grim aspect, with dark complexion, and long hair and beard. Claudius Aelianus Aelian notices him as notorious for his voracity, while Theopompus related that he was accustomed to have one hundred dishes placed on his table at one meal, and that, when he was imprisoned by Artaxerxes, he continued the same course of life, which drew from the king the remark that Thyus was living as if he expected a speedy death. r nepos 2 3 ath 4 10 ael 1.27 References William Smith lexicographer Smith, William Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology , http www.ancientlibrary.com smith bio 3450.html Thyus , Boston , 1867 Notes reflist refs ref name nepos 2 3 ath 4 10 ael 1.27 Nepos, Lives of Eminent Commanders , http www.tertullian.org fathers nepos.htm Datames Datames , 2 3 Athenaeus , Deipnosophistes , 4, 10 lien, Histoires diverses , http remacle.org bloodwolf historiens elien 1.htm i. 27 ref SmithDGRBM Category Achaemenid satraps Category 4th century BC rulers hr Tio pl ... more details
