Artanes (7.224.2), a son of Hystaspes, was one of the two brothers of DARIUS I who died at THERMOPYLAE in 480 BCE. His only child, PHRATAGUNE, came to Darius in MARRIAGE along with Artanes’ wealth in the absence of a male heir. Artanes’ two grandsons also perished at Thermopylae, injecting a poignant note of human pathos into Herodotus’ war narrative (Burn 1984, 419).
