Lysippus (Lusippos), a Lacedaemonian, was left by Agis II. as harmost at Epitalium in Elis, when the king himself returned to Sparta from the Eleian campaign, B. C. 400. During the summer and winter of that year Lysippus made continual devastations on the Eleian territory. In the next year, B. C. 399, the Eleians sued for peace. (Xen. Hell. iii. 2. 29, &c.; comp. Diod. xiv. 17; Wess. ad loc.; Paus. iii. 8, where he is called Lysistratus).
