Tamos (Egyptian admiral)

Tamos (Ancient Greek: Ταμώς), was a mercenary Admiral from Memphis in Egypt, hired by Cyrus the Younger, during his campaign to claim the Persian Throne.[1][2] It is not known if Tamos served in the entire campaign during 401 BC. Tamos led a fleet of 25 triremes as a backup to Cyrus's mercenary Ten Thousand hoplites and Persian troops.

Tamos was Cyrus's secondary admiral, his first being Pythagoras the Spartan, who led the first fleet of 35 triremes.
