Xenophon (c. 430 BCE – c. 355 BCE) was an ancient Greek historian. In Hellenica, he completed Thoukudides's unfinished History, which described the wars between Athens, Persia, and Sparta. He also wrote a memoir titled Anabasis that described Kūruš the Younger's rebellion against the Persian Empire.[1]
