Echestratus

Echestratus (Greek: Ἐχέστρατος) was a King of ancient Sparta from about 900 to 870 BC. He was a son of king Agis I, and third of the Agiad line of Spartan kings.

In his reign Sparta gained control of the district of Cynuria on the Argive border. He was the father of Labotas or Leobotes, king of Sparta.[1] His grandson was Doryssus.

Notes

  1. Pausanias iii. 2. § 2; Herodotus vii. 204.
gollark: But instead people just decide that anything complicated-looking is obviously impossible?
gollark: I mean, my approach to such a problem would just be to duckduckgo "factorize number" or something, and most of the programmers on the servers potatOS is tested on were fine with it. People could even have just *asked* how to do it.
gollark: It's not a hard problem. I'm not doing it in my head.
gollark: But somehow SO MANY PEOPLE don't get it. They just say "HELP ME IT IS DIFFICULT MATHS IS THIS VIRUS" or "WHAT IS THIS I DO NOT KNOW MATHS WHAT IS SEMIPRIME" and stuff.
gollark: I thought "well, this is an easy problem, you just need to duckduckgo 'factorize number' or use the `factor` command".
