'''Archelaos Antonaros''', known commonly as '''Archelaos''', was a [[Greeks|Greek]] cartoonist and satyrist.

Archelaos was born in [[Thessaloniki]] in [[1921]]. He had his first two comic sketches published at the age of 15 in local daily "Makedonia".

Under the pseudonym "TOT", he published sketches in the communist daily [[Rizospastis]] until it was outlawed. Later, he wrote for several Greek magazines such as [[Romantso]], [[Pantheon]], [[Thisavros]], adding his name to other popular cartoonists such as [[Vasilis Christodoulou]], [[Stamatis Polenakis]], Gallias, etc.

Archelaos was also involved in political satire which landed him in court in [[1952]] on account of sketches that poked fun at Gen [[Alexandros Papagos]] and politician [[Spyros Markezinis]]. Luckily, the judge had a sense of humour and Archelaos was exhonerated.

He died in [[1997]].
