This Theras, who was of the race of Cadmos, was mother's brother to the sons of Aristodemos, Eurysthenes and Procles; and while these sons were yet children, Theras as their guardian held the royal power in Sparta.
Theras hori, Kadmoren jatorrikoa zelarik, Aristodemoren seme Eurysthenesentzat eta Proklesentzat amaldeko osaba zen; eta seme hauek oraindik adin txikikoak ziren bitartean, Therasek izan zuen Spartako errege-ordekotza.
