Hegesandridas or Agesandridas (Gr. Ἡγησανδρίδας or Ἀγησανδρίδας), son of a "Hegesander" or "Agesander", perhaps the same who is mentioned as a member of the last Spartan embassy sent to Athens before the Peloponnesian War, was himself a Spartan general in that war. In 411 BC he was placed in command of a fleet of 42 ships destined to further a revolt in Euboea. News of their being seen off Las of Laconia came to Athens at the time when the Four Hundred were building their fort of on a promontory commanding Piraeus, and the coincidence was used by Theramenes in evidence of their treasonable intentions. Further intelligence that the same fleet had sailed over from Megara to Salamis coincided again with the riot in Piraeus, and was held to be certain proof of the allegation of Theramenes.

  • Hegesàndrides o Agesàndrides (en llatí Hegesandridas o Agesandridas, en grec antic Ἡγησανδμιδας o Ἀγησανδριδας) va ser un navarc (almirall) espartà, fill d'un Hegesandre que probablement era membre de la última ambaixada espartana enviada a Atenes abans de la guerra del Peloponès. Hegesàndrides amb 21 anys va ser nomenat comandant d'una flota de quaranta-dos naus destinada a promoure la revolta a Eubea l'any 411 aC. Les notícies sobre la seva sortida d'Esparta van arribar a coneixement del govern dels Quatre-cents en el moment en què estaven construint una fortificació davant del port del Pireu i Teràmenes d'Atenes va usar aquesta notícia per fer tirar endavant més ràpidament el projecte. Aviat es va veure que el seu objectiu era Eubea i va arribar a Oropos. Alarmats els atenencs van preparar les seves naus que estaven disposades al port, amb un total de 36. Però les tripulacions eren noves i no havien remat mai juntes. Un estratagema dels habitants d'Erètria va aconseguir allunyar els atenencs de les naus, i un senyal fet des de la mateixa ciutat va fer avançar l'almirall espartà que va obtenir una victòria fàcil i els atenencs van perdre 22 vaixells i tot Eubea menys Oreos es va revoltar. Segons Tucídides els atenencs es van consternar més per aquesta derrota que pel fracàs del setge de Siracusa, i van veure que si l'enemic hagués estat més ràpid hauria pogut obtenir una victòria definitiva. Després se'n va anar a reforçar la flota de Míndar a l'Hel·lespont; els vaixells d'Eubea que va enviar a Míndar van desaparèixer tots menys un en una tempesta al Mont Atos, però Hegesàndrides va poder arribar amb altres vaixells; a l'Hel·lespont va derrotar més tard a un esquadró atenenc dirigit per Timòcares. El 408 aC és esmentat com a comandant espartà de la costa de Tràcia. (ca)
  • Hegesandridas or Agesandridas (Gr. Ἡγησανδρίδας or Ἀγησανδρίδας), son of a "Hegesander" or "Agesander", perhaps the same who is mentioned as a member of the last Spartan embassy sent to Athens before the Peloponnesian War, was himself a Spartan general in that war. In 411 BC he was placed in command of a fleet of 42 ships destined to further a revolt in Euboea. News of their being seen off Las of Laconia came to Athens at the time when the Four Hundred were building their fort of on a promontory commanding Piraeus, and the coincidence was used by Theramenes in evidence of their treasonable intentions. Further intelligence that the same fleet had sailed over from Megara to Salamis coincided again with the riot in Piraeus, and was held to be certain proof of the allegation of Theramenes. Thucydides thinks it possible that the movement was really made in concert with the Athenian oligarchs, but far more probable that Hegesandridas was merely prompted by an indefinite hope of profiting by the existing dissensions. His ulterior design was soon seen to be Euboea; the fleet doubled Sunium, and finally came to harbor at Oropos in September of 411 BC. A great alarm went up on behalf of the threatened island of Euboea, and a fleet was hastily manned, which amounted to thirty-six galleys, and the Battle of Eretria was begun. But the new crews were inexperienced and poorly equipped; a stratagem of the Eretrians kept the soldiers at a distance, at the very moment when, in obedience to a signal from the town, the Spartan admiral moved to attack. He obtained an easy victory: the Athenians lost 22 ships, and all of Euboea, except Oreus, revolted. Extreme consternation seized the city. Athens, Thucydides adds, had now once again to thank their enemy's tardiness. Had the victors attacked Piraeus, either the city would have fallen victim to its distractions, or by the recall of the fleet from Asia, everything except Attica would have been placed in their hands. Hegesandridas was content with his previous success. However, after the Spartan defeat at Cynossema, Hegesandridas was ordered to reinforce the Hellespontine fleet under the Spartan admiral Mindarus. Fifty of Hegesandridas' ships (partly Euboean) were dispatched, and all were lost in a storm off Athos; so relates Ephorus. On the news of this disaster, Hegesandridas appears to have sailed with what ships he could gather to the Hellespont. Here, at any rate, we find him at the opening of Xenophon's Hellenica; and here he defeated a small squadron recently come from Athens under Thymochares, his opponent at Eretria. He is mentioned once again as an epibates (Sparatn naval commander) on the Thracian coast in 408 BC. (en)
