However, the basis for Hecatomnus' political power was twofold: he was both a high appointed Persian official and a powerful local dynast, who founded the hereditary dynasty of the Hecatomnids. At some time after 395 BC [3] Hecatomnus became the first satrap of Caria, which was until then part of other satrapies, usually that of Lydia. Hecatomnus was the first non-Persian official to be elevated to the position of satrap. Two ancient sources, Diodorus [10] and Isocrates, report that Hecatomnus secretly supplied Evagoras with sums of money to raise mercenary troops and was in fact ready to rise against the Persian King.
