Death
[edit]If I remember correctly, the man is supposed to have died after asking his servant boy whether he was pregnant, after which that boy killed him in revenge. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.150.92.130 (talk) 17:13, 12 September 2019 (UTC)

Two Perianders?
[edit]'Sotion, and Heraclides, and Pamphila, in the fifth book of her Commentaries, says that there were two Perianders; the one a tyrant, and the other a wise man, and a native of Ambracia. And Neanthes of Cyzicus makes the same assertion, adding, that the two men were cousins to one another. And Aristotle says, that it was the Corinthian Periander who was the wise one; but Plato contradicts him.' (Diogenes Lærtius, The Lives of Eminent Philosophers) --- Nalco 01:24, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
Rape by deception
[edit]Did his mother practise rape by deception on him? The wording in the source appears to me to be ambiguous. PatGallacher (talk) 23:51, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
