(Τέννης), king of Sidon in the revolt of Phoenicia against Artaxerxes III. He betrayed the town to Artaxerxes, but was notwithstanding put to death by the Persian king, B. C. 351. The Sidonians, however, resolving not to fall into the power of the king, set the town on fire and perished in the flames. (Diod. 16.41-45.)
