Agnomakhos was the leader of the Archon tyrants of Theros, who ruled for hundreds of years over Trax, a massive empire of centaurs, humans, leonin, minotaurs, and satyrs in ancient times. Agnomakhos used the leonin as an army, and ruled a particularly brutal regime centered in modern Meletis that extended into the mountains to the north and the forests to the east, using the pretext of a war against the giants to legitimize his rule.[1] Eventually, the empire of Trax fell to a rebellion led by kings Kynaios and Tiro, and the first polis, Meletis, was born from its ashes.[2][3]

When leading his forces, Agnomakhos rode a flying bull into battle.
