<p>He was in consequence entrusted by the Persian king with the chief command of a force designed for the recovery of <a href="History_of_ancient_Egypt" title="History of ancient Egypt">Egypt</a>, following the failure of <a href="Pharnabazus_II" title="Pharnabazus II">Pharnabazus II</a>; but the machinations of his enemies at the Persian court, and the risks to which he was in consequence exposed, induced him to change his plan, and throw off his allegiance to the king (c.370 BC). He withdrew with the troops under his command into <a href="Cappadocia" title="Cappadocia">Cappadocia</a>, and made common cause with the other satraps who had revolted from Persia (the "<a href="Revolt_of_the_Satraps" class="mw-redirect" title="Revolt of the Satraps">Satraps' Revolt</a>").

</p>

<p><a href="Artabazus_of_Phrygia" class="mw-redirect" title="Artabazus of Phrygia">Artabazos</a>, the satrap of <a href="Hellespontine_Phrygia" title="Hellespontine Phrygia">Hellespontine Phrygia</a>, one of the generals that remained faithful to the king, advanced against him from <a href="Pisidia" title="Pisidia">Pisidia</a>, but was entirely defeated. The great reputation that Datames had acquired induced Artaxerxes to direct his utmost exertions to effect his subjection, but <a href="Autophradates" title="Autophradates">Autophradates</a>, who was sent against him with a large army, was obliged to retreat with heavy loss. Datames, however, though constantly victorious against open foes, ultimately fell a victim to treachery, and, after evading numerous plots that had been formed against his life, was assassinated at a conference by <a href="Mithridates_of_Cius" title="Mithridates of Cius">Mithridates</a>, the son of <a href="Ariobarzanes_of_Phrygia" title="Ariobarzanes of Phrygia">Ariobarzanes</a>, who had gained his confidence by assuming the appearance of hostility to the king.<sup id="cite_ref-nep_diod_15.91_pol_7.21_29_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-nep_diod_15.91_pol_7.21_29-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Evaluation">Evaluation</h2></div>

<p>Datames appears to have obtained the highest reputation in his day for courage and ability in war, which caused his fame to extend even among the <a href="Ancient_Greece" title="Ancient Greece">Greeks</a>, though he did not come into personal collision with them. <a href="Cornelius_Nepos" title="Cornelius Nepos">Cornelius Nepos</a> (to whose biographical sketch we owe the only connected narrative of his life) calls him the bravest and most able of all non-Greek and non-Roman generals, except <a href="Hamilcar_Barca" title="Hamilcar Barca">Hamilcar</a> and <a href="Hannibal" title="Hannibal">Hannibal</a>; but there is much confusion in the accounts transmitted to us, and it is difficult to assign the anecdotes of him recorded by <a href="Polyaenus" title="Polyaenus">Polyaenus</a> to their proper place in his history. The chronology of the events related by Nepos is also very obscure; but according to that author and <a href="Diodorus_Siculus" title="Diodorus Siculus">Diodorus</a> it would appear that Datames must have died before Artaxerxes, probably 362 BC.

</p><p>He was succeeded by his son <a href="Ariamnes" title="Ariamnes">Ariamnes I</a> ( Ancient Greek: Ἀριάμνης, Ariámnēs) who ruled 362 BC–330 BC as satrap of <a href="Cappadocia" title="Cappadocia">Cappadocia</a> under Persian suzerainty.
