Agenor (/əˈdʒiːnɔːr/; Ancient Greek: Ἀγήνωρ, romanized: Agēnor, lit. 'heroic, manly')[1] was in Greek mythology and history a Phoenician king of Tyre[2] or Sidon. The Greek historian Herodotus (c. 484–425 BC), born in the city of Halicarnassus under the Achaemenid Empire, estimated that Agenor lived either 1000 or 1600 years prior to his visit to Tyre in 450 BC at the end of the Greco-Persian Wars (499–449 BC).[3][4] He was said to have reigned in that city for 63 years.[5]
