Eurypontidai

The family name for the descendants of one of the first kings of the city of Sparta, king Eurypon; the dates of his rule are not known for certain but we can assume that he ruled circa 895-865 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; their families were respectively known as the Eurypontidai and the Agiadai; the Eurypontidai are also referred to as the Eurypontids.
