Athames (died 34 BCE) was an Egyptian captain who served the strategos of Yebu Nome during the 1st century BCE.

Biography[edit | edit source]

During the late 1st century BCE, Athames collaborated with Tychon, a corrupted official and Nomarch of Thebes Nome. Together, they worked to ransack the tombs in the region and came into an agreement not to scavenge in each others territory.[1] However, at some point in 34 BCE, Tychon's men violated the agreement and scavenged in Athames' territory. Discovering this, Athames wrote a letter to Tychon and sent his men to his villa in Thebes to arrest him.[2] Unbeknowst to Athames, Tychon had been assassinated by the Hidden One Bayek.[3]

At the same time, Athames also forced the historian Tahemet to work for him at the Necropolis of the Nobles, for she would face jail for the scene she made during a gambling session.[4] Later that year, after learning of Athames acts of desecration in the necropolis, Bayek travelled to the island of Yebu, where he eliminated Athames.[5]
