Agesilaus IIAgesilaos II

The nineteenth Eurypontidai king of the city of Sparta (ruled 399-360 BCE).

Sparta traditionally had two kings who ruled jointly; one king was required to be a descendant of king Eurypon and the other was required to be a descendant of king Agis I (respectively known as the Eurypontidai and the Agiadai).

Although lame, Agesilaus was a dynamic and resourceful leader; he died commanding a military expedition against the Persians circa 360 BCE.

Agesilaus was the subject of Xenophon’s historic text Agesilaus.
