     Gela and Syracuse made a treaty, which included a clause that Kamarina, for hundreds of years a colony of Syracuse, should be handed back by Hippokrates. After reigning as long as his brother, Hippokrates was killed near Hybla, fighting the Sicilians. Now Gelon, pretending to help Hippokrates’ sons to punish their rebellious subjects, waited for an opportunity to seize power himself.

     Unlike Thessalos, the name Hippokrates displays a slight spike in popularity only in the third century BC. This suggests that the popularity of Thessalos is not related solely to a desire to evoke medically significant names, since that would affect the popularity of Hippokrates equally.
