Labotas, also spelled Leobotas[1] or Leobotes (Greek: Λαβώτας or Λεωβώτης) was the son of Echestratus and was the third king of Sparta from the Agiad dynasty.[2]
Labotas led a war against the Argives because the Kynouria occupied and supposedly lived in the surrounding areas that the Perioeci had inhabited.[citation needed]
According to Jerome and the Excerpta Latina Barbari he reigned 37 years. After his death, his son Doryssos inherited the throne.
