Influence[edit | edit source]
During the Peloponnesian War, Barnabas, the captain of the ship Adrestia, acknowledged Dolos on a couple of occasions[1] during his adventures with the Spartan misthios Kassandra.[2]
In 48 BCE, the Cyrenean Sminthos believed that Dolos, "the spirit of cunning", had sent the Medjay Bayek of Siwa to help him.[3]
