Years: 226BCE - 226BCE
Cleomenes, reigning without a colleague, had recalled the exiled Archidamus V, twenty-seventh Spartan king of the Eurypontid line, but Archidamus was assassinated shortly after his return in 227. (The historian Polybius accuses Cleomenes of the murder, but Plutarch is probably right in attributing it to those who had caused the death of Agis and who feared his brother's vengeance.)
Cleomenes completes his reforms by placing his brother, Eucleidas, in charge, making him the first Agiad king on the Eurypontid throne.
