Rhemaxos was an ancient king who ruled to the north ofDanube around 200 BC and who was the protector of theGreek colonies inDobruja, receiving a tribute from them in exchange of protection against outside attacks. It appears that the links with the Greek cities lasted a rather long time, as several treaties have been found.
Some historians have suggested that he was the chieftain of aDacian tribal union on theRomanian Plain. Others said he was a Scythian king.
His son Phradmon allocated 600 horsemen to defend the city ofHistria at the request of Agathocles, son ofAntiphilos.[1][2]
