Details
Abantidas (in Greek ?ßa?t?da?), the son of Paseas, became tyrant of the ancient Greek city-state of Sicyon after murdering Cleinias, the father of Aratus, 264 BC. He either banished or put to death his friends and relations; Aratus, who was then only seven years old, narrowly escaped death by fleeing into the house of Soso, the sister of the tyrant. Abantidas was fond of literature, and was accustomed to attending the philosophical discussions of Deinias and Aristotle the dialectician, in the agora of Sicyon: on one of these occasions, with the complicity of the two rhetors, he was murdered by his enemies (252 BC). He was succeeded as tyrant of Sicyon by his father, Paseas, who was later put to death by Nicocles.
