He became more and more desirous every day to make peace with the Romans, preferring very much that such a people should be his allies rather than his enemies.

Lanassa. The tyrant her father.
In after time, Neoptolemus, Achilles's son, planting a colony, possessed these parts himself, and left a succession of kings, who, after him, were named Pyrrhidae; as he in his youth was called Pyrrhus, and of his legitimate children, one born of Lanassa, daughter of Cleodaeus, Hyllus's son, had also that name.
Pantauchus narrowly escapes death. Demetrius is hated by his subjects. His famous garment. It is left unfinished. Pyrrhus's wives. His motive for marrying Lanassa. Lanassa is discontented, and deserts Pyrrhus. War protracted for many years.
Lanassa was not happy as Pyrrhus's bride. In fact, to have been married for the sake of an island brought as dowry, and to be only one of several wives after all, would not seem to be circumstances particularly encouraging in respect to the promise of conjugal bliss. Lanassa complained that she was neglected; that the other wives received attentions which were not accorded to her.
The Mamertine champion. Pyrrhus succeeds in reaching Tarentum. The fact has already been mentioned that one of the wives whom Pyrrhus had married after the death of Antigone, the Egyptian princess, was Lanassa, the daughter of Agathocles, the King of Sicily. Agathocles was a tyrannical monster of the worst description.
He had the daughter of Autoleon, king of the Paeonians, Bircenna, Bardyllis the Illyrian's daughter, Lanassa, daughter of Agathocles the Syracusan, who brought with her in dower the city of Corcyra which had been taken by Agathocles.
