1 349/8 B.C.
2 Artabazus was his brother-in-law, Memnon his brother (see below). (Cp. Dem. 23.157: ὁ Μέμνων καὶ ὁ Μέντωρ, οἱ κηδεσταὶ τοῦ ᾿Αρταβάζου).
3 See chaps. 22.1 and 34.2.
4 Some of their names are known (see P.-W. Realencyclopädie, s.v. "Artabazus," 3).
5 A philosopher, eunuch, and slave of Eubulus. Aristotle, who knew him through the Academy (cp. Plat. L. 6), lived with him, and after his death married his adopted daughter Pythias. The events of this chapter concerning the arrest of Hermias certainly occurred at a later date, since Aristotle is reported (Dionysius, Epist. ad Ammaeum, ch. 5) to have spent three years at the court of Hermias after the death of Plato. Tarn gives the date of Hermias' arrest as 342 (Cambridge Ancient History, 6.23).
6 Cp. Dem. 19.266 and Philochorus fr. 132.
7 Inconsistent with chaps. 37, 38 unless Peitholaus had recovered Pherae in the meantime.
8 For his death see Book 20.22.1.
