		Evagoras was the king of Salamis (410 - 374 BC) in Cyprus.
		Evagoras was allowed to remain nominally king of Salamis, but in reality a vassal of Persia, to which he was to pay a yearly tribute.
		According to Isocrates's panegyric, Evagoras was a model ruler, whose aim was to promote the welfare of his state and of his subjects by the cultivation of Greek refinement and civilization.

		"Evagoras, the friend of Conon, who assisted the Athenians in the re-establishment of their independence, was made a citizen of Athens, and statues of him and of Conon were placed side by side in the Cerameicus."--C. At Cnidus, B.C. [Check this footnote.

	[No title]
		EVAGORAS, son of Nicocles, king of Salamis in Cyprus 410—374 B.C. He claimed descent from Teucer, half-brother of Ajax, son of Telamon, and his family had long been rulers of Salamis until supplanted by a Phoenician exile.
		According to Isocrates, whose panegyric must however be read with caution, Evagoras was a model ruler, whose aim was to promote the welfare of his state and of his subjects by the cultivation of Greek refinement and civilization, which had been almost obliterated in Salamis by a long period of barbarian rule.
		The chief authority for the life of Evagoras is the panegyric of Isocrates addressed to his son Nicocles; see also Diod.

		After this the usurper sought to apprehend Evagoras, probably from jealousy of his hereditary claim to the government, but the latter made his escape to Cilicia, and, having there assembled a small band of followers, returned secretly to Salamis, attacked the tyrant in his palace, overpowered his guards, and put him to death.

		The dissensions between his two adversaries at length proved the safety of Evagoras: Tiribazus was recalled in consequence of the intrigues of Orontes, and the latter hastened to conclude a peace with the Cyprian monarch, by which he was allowed to retain uncontrolled possession of Salamis, with the title of king.

	David Nash - Jalmenus evagoras
		Jalmenus evagoras is an Australian lycaenid butterfly, which like many lycaenids has an apparently mutualistic relationship with ants.
		Eggs of Jalmenus evagoras are laid on various species of Acacia, and the caterpillars feed on the leaves of these bushes when they hatch.
		Hence it seems that what the ants get from the caterpillars in return for their protection is food - both sugars and amino acids - so that the relationship between the ants and the butterfly is a mutualism - one in which both partners benefit.

		For other exiles from royal power are humbled in spirit because of their misfortunes,whereas Evagoras attained to such greatness of soul that, although until that time he had lived as a private citizen, when he was driven into exile he determined to gain the throne.
		With regard to Evagoras, however, the king had stood in terror of him for so long a time that even while he was receiving benefits from him he had undertaken to make war upon him--a wrongful act, indeed, but his purpose was not altogether unreasonable.
		But when he saw that Evagoras was again putting up a bold resistance to the siege and, furthermore, that the soldiers were angered at the arrest of Tiribazus and so were insubordinate and listless in pressing the siege, Orontes became alarmed at the surprising change in the situation.

		Evagoras’ deeds are described as lacking divine aid, and by virtue of the independence of his activity, Isocrates ascribes to him a fortune and happiness that in fact surpass those of the gods.

		During their term of office, in Cyprus, while the people of Salamis were being besieged by Evagoras and Phocion, the rest of the cities all became subject to the Persians, and Pnytagoras, the king of Salamis, alone continued to endure the siege.
		[2] Now Evagoras was endeavouring to recover his ancestral rule over the Salaminians and through the help of the King of the Persians to be restored to his kingship.
		But later, when he had been falsely accused to Artaxerxes and the King was backing Pnytagoras, Evagoras, after having given up hope of his restoration and made his defence on the accusations brought against him, was accorded another and higher command in Asia.

		In 390 BC, the obverse of the coins of Tyre is changed to show the Persian King/hero riding a mythical sea creature "Hypocamp" with bow in hand (some suggest this may be the god Ba'al or even Melkart, however there are none of the prerequisite symbols on the coin that would designate a god).
		It may have been due to Evagoras I, who was unconcerned about the economic soundness of the Phoenician money and allowed the issue of these fourees or simply that Athens had cut off the supply of silver from Anatolia and the western Mediterranean to Persia/Phoenicia and these were an emergency issue.

		By contrast, the writings of Isocrates, who uniquely combined Athenocentric and Panhellenic perspectives and was forced to confront the challenges involved in reconciling them, offer a genuinely new contribution to the contemporary intellectual debate on the relationship between Greek and barbarian identity, homonoia and hegemony.
		Though ostensibly a Cypriot oration, Isocrates' Evagoras echoes many of the motifs from the Panegyricus - including even its most central question about the nature of benevolent leadership - and thus Cyprus can be interpreted here as the microcosm of Greece, with Salamis as its Athens.
		By demonstrating that political changes alone could culturally transform the people of Salamis, Isocrates effectively invalidated the idea of a natural boundary between "Greekness" and "barbarism." Paradoxically, it was this step which allowed him to find a compromise between hegemony and homonoia.
