Procles

2. Tyrant of Epidaurus, the father of Lysis or Melissa, the wife of Periander. Having revealed to the son of the latter the secret of his mother's death [PERIANDER], he incurred the implacable resentment of Periander, who attacked and captured Epidaurus, and took Procles prisoner. (Hdt. 3.50-52; Paus. 2.28.8.)
