Leontiades of Thebes, son of Eurymachus, and apparently a grandson of the Theban commander Leontiades in the Battle of Thermopylae. Plutarch calls him, throughout, "Leontidas". He was one of the polemarchs at Thebes, in 382 BC, when the Spartan commander Phoebidas stopped there on his way against Olynthus. Unlike Ismenias, his democratic colleague, Leontiades courted Phoebidas from the period of his arrival, and, together with and Philip, the other chiefs of the oligarchical party, instigated him to seize the Cadmeia with their aid. This enterprise having been effected on a day when the women were keeping the Thesmophoria in the citadel, and the council therefore sat in or near the agora, Leontiades proceeded to the council and announced what had taken place, with an assurance that no vio

  • Leontiades (en llatí Leontiades, en grec antic Λεοντιάδης) va ser un polític de Tebes que va viure al . Era fill d'Eurímac, i net del comandant Leontiades que va dirigir els tebans a la batalla de les Termòpiles. Era polemarca de Tebes l'any 382 aC quan el comandant espartà Febides es va aturar a Tebes en la seva marxa contra Olint. Ismènies de Tebes, l'amic de Leontiades, que era del partit democràtic, no va aprovar la rebuda que li van fer, però Leontiades, del partit aristocràtic, va rebre a l'espartà amb honors i d'acord amb Àrquias de Túrios i Filip, els altres caps dels aristòcrates, el va instigar a ocupar la ciutadella de Cadmea, l'acròpoli de Tebes amb la seva ajuda. Febides va decidir col·laborar, i per portar-ho a terme es va elegir el dia que se celebraven les Tesmofòries a la ciutadella, i el consell es va asseure a l'àgora prop de la celebració. Leontiades va dirigir-se al consell explicant els fets i assegurant que no s'usaria la violència amb aquells que acceptessin la situació. Va dir que el seu càrrec de polemarca li donava dret a capturar qualsevol persona sospitosa d'haver comès un delicte capital, i així va destituir Ismènies que va ser empresonat i la seva vacant coberta per Àrquias. Leontiades va anar a Esparta per obtenir del seu govern l'aprovació del que s'havia fet. Els espartans van enviar comissionats a Tebes que efectivament ho van aprovar i van condemnar a Ismènies a mort. Van deixar a la ciutat una guarnició espartana, segons diu Xenofont. El govern, amenaçat per quatre-cents exiliats refugiats a Atenes, va quedar cada vegada més depenent d'Esparta. Va enviar emissaris a Atenes per assassinar els principals caps dels exiliats però només ho van aconseguir amb Andròclides. El 379 aC Pelòpides, Cefisòdor, Damòclides i Fil·lides, amb el suport dels exiliats van preparar el seu cop i es van presentar a la casa de Leontiades mentre Mel·ló i altres ho feien a la casa d'Àrquias. Pelòpides i els seus van entrar amb dificultat i Leontiades va aconseguir matar a Cefisòdor, que era el primer que va entrar, però després d'una obstinada lluita va ser mort per Pelòpides. (ca)
  • Leontiades of Thebes, son of Eurymachus, and apparently a grandson of the Theban commander Leontiades in the Battle of Thermopylae. Plutarch calls him, throughout, "Leontidas". He was one of the polemarchs at Thebes, in 382 BC, when the Spartan commander Phoebidas stopped there on his way against Olynthus. Unlike Ismenias, his democratic colleague, Leontiades courted Phoebidas from the period of his arrival, and, together with and Philip, the other chiefs of the oligarchical party, instigated him to seize the Cadmeia with their aid. This enterprise having been effected on a day when the women were keeping the Thesmophoria in the citadel, and the council therefore sat in or near the agora, Leontiades proceeded to the council and announced what had taken place, with an assurance that no violence was intended to such as remained quiet. Then, asserting that his office of polemarch gave him power to apprehend any one under suspicion of a capital offence, he caused Ismenias to be seized and thrown into prison. Archias was then appointed to the office thus vacated, and Leontiades went to Sparta and persuaded the Lacedaemonians to sanction what had been done. Accordingly, they sent commissioners to Thebes, who condemned Ismenias to death, and fully established Leontiades and his faction in the government under the protection of the Spartan garrison. In this position, exposed to the hostility and machinations of some 400 democratic exiles, who had taken refuge at Athens, Leontiades, watchful, cautious, and energetic, presented a marked contrast to Archias, his voluptuous colleague, whose reckless and insolent profligacy he discountenanced, as tending obviously to the overthrow of their joint power. His unscrupulousness, at the same time, was at least equal to his other qualifications for a party-leader, as he sent emissaries to Athens in an effort to remove the chief of the exiles by assassination, though Androcleides was the only one who fell a victim to the plot. In 379 BC, when the refugees, associated with Pelopidas, had entered on their enterprise for the deliverance of Thebes, Pelopidas himself, with Cephisodorus, Damocleidas, and Phyllidas, went to the house of Leontiades, while Melon and others were dealing with Archias. The house was closed for the night, and it was with some difficulty that the conspirators gained admittance. Leontiades met them at the door of his chamber, and killed Cephisodorus, who was the first that entered. But, after an obstinate struggle, he was himself killed by Pelopidas. (en)
