Abstract
Peisistratus managed to remain tyrant of Athens from 546 to 527 B.C. in part thanks to his administration of foreign policy. The aim of this article is to analyze how Peisistratus of Athens foreign relationships functioned during his third tyranny. Through an analysis of the available sources, mainly Herodotus, Thucydides and Aristotle, the purpose of this work is to see how the tyrant of Athens exerted his influence on three areas of the Hellas: the Cyclades, mainland Greece and the Hellespont. In the Cyclades he managed to show his dominance through the purification of Delos and the installation of Lígdamis as tyrant of Naxos. In mainland Greece, his alliance with Argos allowed him to establish himself as tyrant in Athens, thanks also to the help of his counterparts in Thebes and Eretria, but this collaboration also earned him enmity with other poleis, such as Corinth or Sparta, which joined the animosity already held by those of Megara. In the Hellespont Peisistratus intervened directly in Sigeion, while he did it indirectly in the Chersonesus thanks to the intervention of Miltiades. In short, the results of this study show that the last tyranny of Peisistratus put forth a consistent foreign policy that can be reconstructed in spite of the scarcity of sources.
