Greek Mythology > People, Places, & Things > Leon
Labdakos to Lethe Leto to Lysizonos
The thirteenth Agiadai king of the city of Sparta who ruled circa 590-560 BCE.
Sparta traditionally had two kings who ruled jointly; one king was required to be a descendant of king Agis I and the other was required to be a descendant of king Eurypon (respectively known as the Agiadai and the Eurypontidai).
Very little is known about Leon and the dates given for his rule are extrapolations and should be used only as approximations.
