Tyrannicide
Tyrannicide or tyrannomachia is the killing or assassination of a tyrant or unjust ruler. Tyrannicide was heavily encouraged in Classical Greece. The killing of Clearchus of Heraclea in 353 BC by a cohort led by his own court philosopher is an example of a tyrannicide. A person who carries out a tyrannicide is also called a "tyrannicide". The term originally denoted the action of Harmodius and Aristogeiton, who are often called the Tyrannicides, in killing Hipparchus of Athens in 514 BC.
