A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology (ed. William Smith), Tiribazus (search)
the 10,000 at the distance of several stadia with the intent of assailing them in a mountain pass, through which their march necessarily lay. On hearing this, the main body of the Greeks hastened to secure the pass, and, having moreover attacked the camp of Tiribazus, put the barbarians to flight, and captured the tent of the satrap himself (Xen. Anab. 4.4. §§ 4-7, 16-21, 5.1, 7.8.25; Diod. 14.27.) Tiribazus succeeded Tithraustes as satrap of Western Asia, and in this office we find him in B. C. 393, when Antalcidas was sent to negotiate, through him, a peace for Sparta with the Persian king. The satrap was convinced by Antalcidas that it was expedient for Artaxerxes to support the Lacedaeonians, and he according gave them all the help which he could venture to furnish without express authority from his master. We do not know the cause which led to Tiribazus being superseded by Struthas, in B. C. 392; but by B. C. 388 he had returned to his satrapy. He co-operated cordially, as before

to that of Pharnabazus, and even supplied him with money for the expedition. Being soon after convinced that Agesilaus had no intention of leaving Asia, Tithraustes sent Timocrates, the Rhodian, into Greece with fifty talents, which he was ordered to distribute among the leading men in the several states, to induce them to excite a war against Sparta at home (Xen. Hell. 3.4. §§ 25, &c., 5.1; Diod. 14.80; Paus. 3.9; Plut. Art. 20, Ages. 15). Tithraustes had been superseded in his satrapy by B. C. 393, when Antalcidas was sent to negotiate with his successor, Tiribazus. (Xen. Hell. 4.8.12.) It was probably the same Tithraustes whom we find joined with Pharnabazus and Abrocomas in the command of the unsuccessful expedition of the Persians to Egypt, which seems to have occurred between B. C. 392 and 390 [PHARNABAZUS]. We may perhaps identify him also with the Tithraustes who is mentioned as holding the office of Chiliarch (Vizier) at the time of the embassy of Pelopidas and Ismenias to

Tricipti'nus 7. L. Lucretius Flavus Triciptinus, consul in B. C. 393 with Ser. Sulpicius Camerinus, in which year he conquered the Aequi. He was consular tribune in 391, when he gained a victory over the Volsinienses; and he held the same office a second time in 388, a third time in 383, and a fourth time in 381. (Liv. 5.29, 32, 6.4, 21, 22.) Plutarch (Camill. 32) represents L. Lucretius as the senator who was usually asked first for his opinion, probably because he was one of the few who had held the rank of consul; and the same writer informs us that Lucretius spoke against the removal to Veil.
