      was an officer in the service of Alexander the Great, and must have attained to considerable
      distinction, though his name is not mentioned during the lifetime of that monarch; as only two
      years after his death, in the second division of the provinces at Triparadeisus (<date when-custom="-321">B. C. 321</date>), Stasander obtained the important satrapy of Aria and
      Drangiana, in which he succeeded Stasanor (Arr. apud <hi rend="ital">Phot. p. 71.</hi> b;
       <bibl n="Diod. 18.39">Diod. 18.39</bibl>). In the contest between Eumenes and Antigonus, he
      sided with the former, whom he joined with all the forces he could master, and we find him
      particularly mentioned as taking part in the decisive action in Gabiene. Hence, after the
      final triumph of Antigonus, he was deprived by the conqueror of his satrapy, which was given
      to Euitus. (<bibl n="Diod. 19.14.27">Diod. 19.14. 27</bibl>, <bibl n="Diod. 19.14.48">48</bibl>.) </p><byline>[<ref target="author.E.H.B">E.H.B</ref>]</byline></div></div></body></text></TEI>
