Actisanes’s City of Noseless Criminals


Amasis’s people did not put up with him for long. He was a harsh ruler,
and it did not take long before he was overthrown. This time, the
revolution
was led by an Ethiopian named Actisanes, who was determined to take a gentler approach.
Actisanes had a new idea for dealing with criminals. Every person who committed a crime, he ruled, would have their nose cut off. Then they
would be sent off to a town he called Rhinocolura—literally,
 the town of cut-off noses.
