Charondas

6th-century BC Greek legislator and statesman

Charondas was a celebrated lawgiver of Catania in Sicily. It is uncertain when he lived; some identify him as a pupil of Pythagoras, but all that can be said is that he lived earlier than Anaxilas of Rhegium, as his laws were in use by the Rhegians until they were abolished by Anaxilas. His laws, originally written in verse, were adopted by the other Chalcidic colonies in Sicily and Italy.
