Pheidon (Ancient Greek: Φείδων) was an Argive ruler, usually dated to the first half of the 7th century BCE (perhaps reigning c. 680 – c. 660). While his dating is a matter of dispute and much of the information about him is fragmentary, he is almost always described as a powerful and expansionist ruler. He consolidated Argive control over the surrounding region of the Argolid. Read more on Wikipedia
