Endius (Endios) was a Spartan ephor during the Peloponnesian War (431–404 BC). Endius was a son of Alcibiades, member of a family whose connection with that of the Athenian Alcibiades had in a previous generation introduced into the latter this Lacedaemonian name. Apparently he was one of the three ambassadors sent by Sparta in 420 BC to dissuade Athens from entering into an alliance with Argos. They were chosen, says Thucydides, from the belief of their being acceptable to the Athenians, and possibly in particular with a view to conciliate his guest, Alcibiades, who probably made use of this very advantage in effecting the deception by which he defeated their purpose.

| - Endi (en llatí Endius, en grec antic Ἔνδιος "Endios") fou un polític espartà fill d'Alcibíades, d'una família emparentada o relacionada amb l'atenenc Alcibíades i d'una generació anterior però propera, que va introduir aquest nom espartà entre els atenencs. Sembla que va ser un dels tres ambaixadors enviats per Esparta l'any 420 aC per dissuadir a Atenes d'una aliança amb Argos. Van ser escollits, diu Tucídides, per la creença que eren acceptables pels atenesos i per agradar a Alcibíades, que probablement va aprofitar aquest avantatge per organitzar un engany que va impedir l'aliança. Va ser elegit èfor la tardor de l'any 413 aC, en el moment del desastre atenenc a Siracusa i per mitjà d'ell, Alcibíades va donar un cop fort al seu país portant els lacedemonis a atacar a la costa de Jònia que segurament s'hauria posposat. La seva influència va aconseguir que Esparta prestés ajuda a Quios i quan les naus d'Alcibíades es van trobar bloquejades al Pireu aturant totes les operacions, va convèncer de nou Endi i els seus col·legues perquè fessin un nou intent. Tucídides diu que Alcibíades era el seu πατρικὸς ἐς τὰ μάλιστα ξένος ("patrikós és ta málista xénos") que probablement vol dir que va residir a casa seva durant la seva estada a Esparta. Segons diu Diodor de Sicília, després de la batalla de Cízic l'any 410 aC va ser enviat altre cop com ambaixador a Atenes amb propostes raonables de pau que van ser rebutjades per influència del demagog Cleofó. És probable aquest viatge a Atenes degut a les seves relacions d'amistat amb Alcibíades, el vencedor a Cízic, encara que d'aquest fet no en parli Xenofont. (ca)

- Endius (Endios) was a Spartan ephor during the Peloponnesian War (431–404 BC). Endius was a son of Alcibiades, member of a family whose connection with that of the Athenian Alcibiades had in a previous generation introduced into the latter this Lacedaemonian name. Apparently he was one of the three ambassadors sent by Sparta in 420 BC to dissuade Athens from entering into an alliance with Argos. They were chosen, says Thucydides, from the belief of their being acceptable to the Athenians, and possibly in particular with a view to conciliate his guest, Alcibiades, who probably made use of this very advantage in effecting the deception by which he defeated their purpose. He was elected ephor in the autumn of 413 BC, the time of the Athenian disaster at Syracuse. And through him Alcibiades now inflicted on his country the severe blow of bringing the Lacedaemonians to the coast of Ionia, which otherwise may have been postponed. His influence decided the government to lend its support to Chios; and when the blockade of their ships in Piraeus seemed likely to put a stop to all operations, he again persuaded Endius and his colleagues to make the attempt. Thucydides says that Alcibiades was his patrikos es ta malista xenos; so that probably it was with him that Alcibiades resided during his stay at Sparta. To these facts we may venture to add from Diodorus the further statement, that after the defeat at Cyzicus in 410 BC, he was sent from Sparta at the head of an embassy to Athens with reasonable proposals for peace, which were rejected thanks to the influence of the presumptuous demagogue Cleophon. Endius, as the friend of Alcibiades, the victor of Cyzicus, would naturally be selected; and the account of Diodorus, with the exception of the oration he writes for Endius, may, notwithstanding the silence of Xenophon, be regarded as generally true.
