Cersobleptes

(died 342 BC) King of Thrace (360–342). He inherited a war with Athens and was opposed internally by two pretenders to the throne. To Athens he ceded the Thracian Chersonese (357); to the pretenders he relinquished western Thrace. He forged an alliance with Athens to oppose Macedonia, but was later excluded from the peace of 346 by Philip II.
