Xanthippus

In memoriam

Son of Pericles. He was presumably named after his grandfather. He and his younger brother Paralus were apparently of inferior capacity and poorer character compared to their father; indeed, they both came to be called "cabbage-suckers." Paralus and Xanthippus both died in the Plague of Athens in 429 BC. Pericles, beset by grief, succumbed to the Plague himself soon afterwards.
