In a way but it's also just reasonably close to my real name and I like the sound of it. I knew there was a Persian King Darius that fought wars with Greek culture polities. To be honest I'm not familiar with the Xenophon story but will look into it. Thanks!

1) Found through Facebook - joined relevant discussion group recently - using a pseudonym here. No worries using the name of a Persian king on a Greek philosophy site is as naughty as I get.
2) Read On the Nature of Things, Diogenes' Lives of the Eminent Philosophers - Epicurus chapter, and I'm now reading Art of Being Happy
Interested in this group because seems to have the discussion I was seeking to read through, more than the FB group, the reasons for which I understand.
Thank you and look forward to engaging but activity may be sporadic.

Finding Things At EpicureanFriends.com
What's the best strategy for finding things on EpicureanFriends.com? Here's a suggested search strategy:
- First, familiarize yourself with the list of forums. The best way to find threads related to a particular topic is to look in the relevant forum. Over the years most people have tried to start threads according to forum topic, and we regularly move threads from our "general discussion" area over to forums with more descriptive titles.
- Use the "Search" facility at the top right of every page. Note that the search box asks you what section of the forum you'd like to search. If you don't know, select "Everywhere." Also check the "Search Assistance" page.
- Use the "Tag" facility, starting with the "Key Tags By Topic" in the right hand navigation pane, or using the "Search By Tag" page, or the "Tag Overview" page which contains a list of all tags alphabetically. We curate the available tags to keep them to a manageable number that is descriptive of frequently-searched topics.
