| | Agathocles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | His last years were harassed by ill-health and the turbulence of his grandson Archagathus, at whose instigation he is said to have been poisoned; according to others, he died a natural death. | | | After concluding peace with Carthage in 306 BC, Agathocles styled himself king of Sicily in 304 BC, and established his rule over the Greek cities of the island more firmly than ever. | | | Agathocles (361 BC-289 BC), tyrant of Syracuse (317 BC-289 BC) and king of Sicily (304 BC-289 BC). |

| | The coup of Agathocles |
| | At once these men, who had plundered the property of their unfortunate [wealthy] victims, shouted not to abandon them but to take full control of affairs. | | | In 316, the Syracusan general Agathocles seized power in his native city, which meant the end of the period inaugurated by Timoleon in which the Sicilian cities had been independent and had regained some prosperity. | | | Claiming to have rid the city of the would-be tyrants, he declared that he was restoring to the people their full autonomy; his own wish was to be freed from his toils and live the life of a private citizen on equal terms with all. |

| | AGATHOCLES Interview |
| | Jan's been really cool about the interview, responding rather quickly, considering how much mail he must get. | | | Agathocles is the name of an ancient Greek tyrant who sacrificed his own children to obtain power. | | | It's just based upon some philosophy, claiming that "life is just a play, and we are all the actors." There's no truth to be found, just a theater, where all is subjective! |

| | Agathocles meanwhile had conquered several important cities around Carthage, had left his army under command of his sons and had returned to Sicily to conduct campaigns against Carthaginian territory on that island. | | | Meanwhile, with this alliance of the Etruscans and the Syracusans, it was only natural for Carthage to seek an alliance of its own. | | | The port of Syracuse was blockaded by the Carthaginian fleet and Agathocles only managed to hang on due to help from his Etruscan allies who sent their fleet to relieve the harbour in 307 BC. |

| | Agathocles was a king of Bactria, an ancient Greek kingdom in central Asia (about 200-145 BC). | | | The realization that the legends on Indo-Greek coins were bilingual led to the decipherment of another ancient Indian script, Kharoshthi, which was adopted instead of Brahmi for all the issues of Agathocles' successors. | | | From 200 BC the kingdom extended its control south of the Hindu Kush into Gandhara (modern Pakistan). |

| | When Agathocles, the new tyrant of Syracuse, aspired to the supremacy of the island he had to fight the Carthaginians (312-306). | | | Finally, however, the latter succeeded, by the treaty of peace, in securing their own possessions and the independence of the other Greek cities in the island, — preventing the union of the Greeks, among whom new tyrants arose, all fighting with one another. | | | When Timoleon defeated Dionysius II (343), the petty tyrants of the various cities again appealed for help to the Carthaginians, who were again defeated at Egesta (342). |
