Archidamus II, also known as Archidamos, was a king of Sparta during the 5th century BCE, ruling with Pausanias during Peloponnesian War.
Early in his reign, Archidamos was known for signing a peace treaty with Athens. When the Peloponnesian War broke out in 431 BCE, the first phase of the war was named the "Archidamian War" after him.
Trivia
- Historically, there were five kings of Sparta called Archidamus: a Greek name derived from the words αρχος (archos), which means 'master', and δαμος (damos), which means 'the people'.
- The game and novel show Archidamos alive and reigning as king as late as 424 BCE when historically he had died and been succeeded by his son Agis II by 427 BCE.
