Camissares
a Carian, father of Datames, was high in favour with Artaxerxes II. (Muemon), by whom he was made satrap of a part of Cilicia bordering on Cappadocia. He fell in the war of Artaxerxes against the Cadusii, B. C. 385, and was succeeded in his satrapy by his son. (Nep. Dat. 1; comp. Diod. 15.8, 10; Plut. Art. 24.)
