Adeimantus of Corinth (/ˈædiːˌmæntəs/; Greek: Ἀδείμαντος), son of Ocytus (Ὠκύτος), was the Corinthian commander during the invasion of Greece by Xerxes.
[1] Before the Battle of Artemisium (480 BC) he threatened to sail away.
According to the Suda, when Adeimantus called Themistocles a city-less man before the Battle of Salamis (because the Persians had destroyed Athens), Themistocles responded: "Who is city-less, when he has 200 triremes?
"[2] According to the Athenians he took to flight at the very commencement of the battle, but this was denied by the Corinthians and the other Greeks.
[3][4] Adeimantus' son Aristeus was the Corinthian commander at the Battle of Potidaea in 432 BC.
