Χαλκίδος—after ravaging the country round Tanagia, they had crossed to Euboea. ἀφ᾽ ἑσπέρας—cf. ἀπὸ πρώτου ὕπνου c. 43.2. Μυκαλησσόν—the destruction of this town, so ancient that its foundation was said to be contemporary with Cadmus, was in every way disgraceful and revolting. Pausanias says the place was in ruins in his day, and there are still considerable remains both of the acropolis and of the lower town.
