Nicocles (-395 / -353) is a king of Salamis of Cyprus. Son of Evagoras, he succeeds his father, assassinated, in -374.
It is known only by the two Discourses that Isocrates, his master, addresses to him, and which treat, one, of the science of the government, the other, of the duties of the subjects towards their prince. / p>
The reign of Nicocles is brief: he too is assassinated by elements close to the Persians who oppose his rallying to the revolt of the satraps of Phenicia and Asia Minor against the Great King Artaxerxes II. His successor is his son or younger brother Évagoras II. Notes and edit the code Sourcemode the code
