“38. Τιμόθεος δ᾽ ὁ στρατηγήσας Ἀθηναίων ἐπιφανῶς ἑταίρας ἦν υἱὸς Θρᾴττης τὸ γένος, σεμνῆς δ᾽ ἄλλως τοὺς τρόπους. μεταβάλλουσαι γὰρ αἱ τοιαῦται εἰς τὸ σῶφρον τῶν ἐπὶ τούτῳ
σεμνυνομένων εἰσὶ βελτίους. ὁ δὲ Τιμόθεος καὶ σκωπτόμενός ποτε ὅτι τοιαύτης εἴη μητρὸς ‘καὶ χάριν γε αὐτῇ, φησίν, οἶδα, ὅτι δι᾽ αὐτὴν Κόνωνός εἰμι
[p. 116]
υἱός.’ Φιλέταιρον δὲ τὸν Περγάμου καὶ τῆς Καινῆς ταύτης λεγομένης βασιλεύσαντα χώρας Βόας αὐλητρίδος, ἑταίρας τὸ γένος ἀπὸ Παφλαγονίας, υἱόν φησι γενέσθαι Καρύστιος ἐν Ἱστορικοῖς Ὑπομνήμασιν. Ἀριστοφῶν δ᾽ ὁ ῥήτωρ, ὁ τὸν νόμον εἰσενεγκὼν ἐπ᾽ Εὐκλείδου ἄρχοντος ὃς ἂν μὴ ἐξ ἀστῆς γένηται νόθον εἶναι, αὐτὸς ἀπεδείχθη
ὑπὸ Καλλιάδου τοῦ κωμικοῦ ἐκ Χορηγίδος τῆς ἑταίρας παιδοποιησάμενος, ὡς ὁ αὐτὸς ἱστορεῖ Καρύστιος ἐν τρίτῳ Ὑπομνημάτων. Δημήτριος δ᾽ ὁ Πολιορκητὴς οὐ δαιμονίως ἤρα Λαμίας τῆς αὐλητρίδος, ἐξ ἧς ἔσχε καὶ θυγατέρα Φίλαν; τὴν δὲ Λάμιαν Πολέμων φησὶν ἐν τῷ περὶ τῆς ἐν Σικυῶνι Ποικίλης Στοᾶς θυγατέρα μὲν εἶναι Κλεάνορος Ἀθηναίου, κατασκευάσαι δὲ Σικυωνίοις τὴν προκειμένην στοάν. ἤρα δὲ καὶ Λεαίνης καὶ
αὐτῆς ἑταίρας Ἀττικῆς ὁ Δημήτριος καὶ ἄλλων δὲ πλειόνων.
