Pantaleon ist eine fünfköpfige Progressive-Power-Metal Band aus Köln. Schon vor der Auflösung der Band Dissociative im August 2007 hatten Sebastian Heuckmann (bass) und Fabian Richter (keys) beschlossen, weiter zusammen Musik zu machen. Mit Xaver Schiffels wurde sofort ein neuer Gitarrist gefunden, kurz darauf übernahm Kevin Kott die Drums, doch dauerte es fast ein Jahr, bis man in dem ehemaligen Dissociative-Gitarristen Patrick Sühl einen neuen Sänger fand. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/p

Pantaleon (, Pantaléōn) was a Greek king who reigned some time between 190 and 180 BC in Bactria and India. He was a younger contemporary or successor of the Greco-Bactrian king Demetrius, and is sometimes believed to have been his brother and/or subking.

The scarcity of his coinage indicates a short reign. Known evidence suggests that he was replaced by his (probable) brother or son Agathocles, by whom he was commemorated on a "pedigree" coin.
