Leocritus
3. A general of Pharnaces, king of Pontus, in his war with Eumenes II. of Pergamus, was sent by his master to invade Galatia in B. C. 181. (Pol. 25.4.) On one occasion the garrison of Tium or Teium, a town in Paphlagonia, surrendered to him on a promise of safety, in spite of which he treacherously put the whole of it to death. (Diod. Exc. de Virt. et Vit. p. 576; comp. Pol. 26.6.)
