Sibyrtius Sibyrtius ( Greek : ; lived 4th century BC ) was a Greek officer from Crete in the service of Alexander the Great , who was appointed by him , on his return from India ( 326 BC ) , governor of the province of Carmania . This post he shortly after exchanged for the more important satrapy of Arachosia and Gedrosia , to which he succeeded on the death of Thoas . At the death of Alexander ( 323 BC ) , Sibyrtius , in common with most of the other governors of the remote eastern provinces , retained possession of his satrapy , which was again confirmed to him in the second partition at Triparadisus , 321 BC . In the subsequent divisions which arose among the eastern satraps , Sibyrtius was one of those who supported Peucestas against Peithon and Seleucus , and afterwards accompanied that leader when he joined Eumenes in Susiana , 317 BC . His attachment was , however , to Peucestas , and not to Eumenes , and in the intrigues of the former against his commander - in - chief , Sibyrtius supported him so strongly that he incurred the especial resentment of Eumenes , who threatened to bring him to trial ; a fate from which he only escaped by a hasty flight . But this open rupture with Eumenes had the advantage of securing him the favour of Antigonus , who , after the defeat of his rival , confirmed Sibyrtius in his satrapy , and placed under his command a large part of the select body of troops termed Argyraspids ; a measure adopted with the ostensible object of guarding these provinces against the neighbouring barbarians , but in reality with a view to the gradual destruction of the troops in question , whose turbulent and disaffected spirit was well known . . Arrian mentions that Megasthenes , the historian and ambassador of Seleucus to India after his 303 treaty with Chandragupta , lived with Sibyrtius , suggesting the latter may have remained at his post as satrap for quite a long time :
