Evagoras I seized the throne of Salamis around 411 BC in a coup with a force reportedly as small as fifty men, then spent decades consolidating Cypriot power against Persian dominance. His alliance with Athens — formalized partly through his role in securing Conon's command of the Persian fleet at Cnidus in 394 BC — earned him Athenian citizenship, an honor rarely extended to foreign rulers. The coinage issued under his authority was among the first in Cyprus to carry a Greek royal name in Phoenician script, a deliberate assertion of Hellenic identity on an island long contested between Greek and Near Eastern spheres.
He was assassinated in 374 BC by a eunuch, for reasons ancient sources describe as personal rather than political.
