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. ยงยง 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 Tithraustes had been superseded in his satrapy by B. C. 393, when Antalcidas was sent to negotiate with his successor, Tiribazus.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

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.
