Phintias of Agrigentum
text:
Phintias was an ancient Greek tyrant of the Sicilian town of Acragas in Magna Graecia. He appears to have established his power over that city during the period of confusion which followed the death of Agathocles, about the same time that Hicetas obtained the chief command at Syracuse. War soon broke out between the two despots, in which Phintias was defeated near Hybla. But this success having induced Hicetas to engage with a more formidable enemy, the Carthaginians, he was defeated in his turn
