Sitalces II
:''For the Odrysian king of the 5th century BC, see Sitalces''
Sitalces was apparently a prince of the Odrysian royal house, possibly even the son of Cersobleptes. He was leader of a body of Thracian light-armed troops (javelin-men, ''akontistai''), which accompanied Alexander the Great as auxiliaries on his expedition to Asia, which rendered important services on various occasions, among others, at the battles of Issus and Arbela. Alexander took the sons of Thracian kings with him in order to ensure the loyalty of their fathers at home. Sitalces was one of the officers left behind in Media under the command of Parmenion where he received, through the agency of Polydamas, royal orders to kill the old general. In this province he remained until after the return of Alexander from India, when he along with Cleander and Heracon prepared to meet the king in Carmania, 326 BC. Either he was followed by many persons from Media who accused him of numerous acts of rape, extortion, and cruelty. It was on these charges he was later put to death by order of Alexander.
