It was Cyrus the Great...see 2 Chronicles 36:22-23 = Ezra 1.1-3.

Apparently Darius the Mede is only known from the Book of Daniel. Non-Persians had a tendency to mix up Medes and Persians (at least the Greeks often say "the Medes" when they mean Persians). Hence the old proverb: one man's Mede is another man's Persian.

[Socratic]

Hence the old proverb: one man's Mede is another man's Persian.
