Datames (Aramaic: Tadanmu, Ancient Greek: Δατάμης, romanized: Datámēs; 407 BC – 362 BC) was an Iranian military leader, who served as the governor (satrap) of the Achaemenid satrapy of Cappadocia from 380 BC to 362 BC.
Etymology
"Datames" is the Hellenized form of the Old Iranian *Dātama- or *Dātāma-, either from Dātamiθra ("Gift of Mithra") or *Data-ama ("to whom force is given").[1] The name is attested in Aramaic as Tadanmu.[2]
Background
Datames was born in c. 407.[3] He was a son of Camisares, an Iranian satrap who governed Cilicia under the Achaemenid king Artaxerxes II (r. 404–358 BC).[4] Camisares was most likely from a Persian noble-family, that settled in Caria, and was one of those nobles who sided with Artaxerxes II during the revolt of Cyrus the Younger.[5] Datames' mother was a Paphlagonian princess named Scythissa, who was married to Camisares sometime before 401 BC.[6]
