At the same time, as Marcus HelviusHelvius had been governor of this province since 197 B.C. (XXXII. xxviii. 2); Claudius succeeded him in 195 B.C. was retiring from Farther Spain, accompanied by a guard of six thousand men furnished by Appius Claudius the praetor, the Celtiberi with a large force fell upon him near the town of Iliturgi.
Valerius writes that there were twenty thousand men there, that twelve thousand of them were killed, the town of Iliturgi taken and all the adults put to death.
After that Helvius came to the camp of Cato, and, because this region was now safe from the enemy, sent his guard back to Farther Spain and set out for Rome, and by reason of his victory entered the city in an ovation.
He deposited in the treasury fourteen thousand seven hundred and thirty-two pounds of uncoined silver, seventeen thousand and twenty-three denarii stamped with the two-horse chariot, and one hundred and nineteen thousand four hundred and forty-nine silver

But neither the Boii nor the Spaniards, with whom war was carried on that year, were so hostile and so dangerous to the Romans as the people of the Aetolians.Livy here turns to the Roman campaigns in the east, and for his annalistic sources he substitutes Polybius. A settlement in Greece had been effected by Flamininus after the defeat of Philip in 197 B.C., but the Aetolians had been from the first dissatisfied with the arrangements (cf. XXXIV. xxiii. 5 ff., etc.), and grasped every opportunity to unsettle the minds of their neighbours. Their activity and its consequences are described in the following chapters.
After the evacuation of Greece by the armies they had at first been in hopes that Antiochus would come to occupy masterless EuropeLivy here employs a legal phrase (in vacuam possessionem intrare), used to express the act of taking possession of property which had no real or apparent owner (dominus). Greece had been liberated by the Romans. and that neither PhilipPh

they inB.C. 187 consequence laid a complaint about this before the senate at Rome, and were referred to the consul Aemilius, whom the senate had authorized to investigate and decide, and after engaging in great contention with the praetor won their case.
The praetor was ordered to restore their arms to the Cenomani and to leave the province.
Then ambassadors from the allies of the Latin confederacy, who had assembled from all Latium in great numbers from every side, were granted an audience by the senate. When they complained that a great number of their citizens had migrated to Rome and had been assessed there,The allied cities and the Latin colonies, whose status was similar, were under obligations to Rome, in accordance with their several tre

In reply to this Philip followed a very different line of argument from that recently used against the Thessalians and Perrhaebians: With the Maroneans or with Eumenes, he said, I have no debate, but now, Romans, the debate is with you, from whom I have for some time observed that I receive no fair treatment.
The cities of the Macedonians which had revolted from me during the trucePossibly the truce of 197 B.C. (XXXII. xxxvi. 8), but the revolt has not been mentioned before. I deemed it right that I should recover, not because it would be an important addition to my kingdom —for they are small towns and, moreover, situated on theB.C. 185 farthest frontiers —but because it was a valuable precedent for holding within bounds the other Macedonians.
This was refused me. During the Aetolian war, ordered by the consul Manius Acilius to besiege Lamia, after I had been wearied for a long time by the siege and battles and when I was on the point of scaling the walls, I was re
