Menes of satrapy of Cilicia.
In 331 BC, after Alexander had occupied
Lacedaemonians.[1] He was a Hyparch, and in this position, he may have been responsible for overseeing the existing administration as far as Cilicia.[1] Apollodorus of Amphipolis
was joined with him in this command.
He issued coinage, often bearing his initial "M".[1]
His successor is unknown, and his position may have only been temporary, to managed conquered territory in the west while Alexander was campaigning further east.[1]
