Megabyzus 迈加比佐斯
- For other historical characters named Megabyzus, see Megabyzus (disambiguation).
Megabyzus (Ancient Greek: Μεγάβυζος, calque of Old Persian Bagabuxša-, meaning "God saved") was a Achaemenid Persian general, son of Zopyrus, satrap of Babylonia. His father was killed when the satrapy rebelled in 482 BC, and Megabyzus led the forces that recaptured the city, after which the statue of the god Marduk was destroyed to prevent future revolts. Megabyzus subsequently took part in the expedition against Greece. Herodotus claims that he refused to act on orders to pillage Delphi, but it is doubtful such orders were ever given.
