34. Ἠλεῖοι δὲ φοβηθέντες τὴν τῶν
Λακεδαιμονίων ὑπεροχήν, κατέλυσαν τὸν πρὸς αὐτοὺς πόλεμον, ἐφ᾽ ᾧ
τὰς τριήρεις δοῦναι Λακεδαιμονίοις καὶ τὰς περιοικούσας πόλεις
αὐτονόμους ἀφεῖναι.
[2]
Λακεδαιμόνιοι δὲ
καταλελυκότες τοὺς πολέμους καὶ σχολὴν ἔχοντες ἐστράτευσαν ἐπὶ
Μεσσηνίους, ὧν οἱ μὲν ἐν Κεφαλληνίᾳ φρούριόν τι κατῴκουν, οἱ δὲ
Ναύπακτον ἐν τοῖς προσεσπερίοις λεγομένοις Λοκροῖς, δόντων Ἀθηναίων.
ἐκβαλόντες δ᾽ αὐτοὺς ἐκ τῶν τόπων ἀπέδωκαν τὰ φρούρια, τὸ μὲν τοῖς
τὴν Κεφαλληνίαν οἰκοῦσι, τὸ δὲ τοῖς Λοκροῖς.
[3]
οἱ δὲ Μεσσήνιοι διὰ τὸ παλαιὸν πρὸς τοὺς
Σπαρτιάτας μῖσος πανταχόθεν ἐλαυνόμενοι, μετὰ τῶν ὅπλων ἀπηλλάγησαν
ἐκ τῆς Ἑλλάδος, καὶ τινὲς μὲν αὐτῶν πλεύσαντες εἰς Σικελίαν
ἐγένοντο Διονυσίου μισθοφόροι, τινὲς δ᾽ εἰς Κυρήνην ἔπλευσαν, περὶ
τρισχιλίους ὄντες, καὶ μετὰ τῶν ἐκεῖ φυγάδων ἐτάχθησαν.
[4]
οἱ γὰρ Κυρηναῖοι κατ᾽ ἐκεῖνον τὸν καιρὸν ἐν
ταραχῇ καθειστήκεισαν, Ἀρίστωνος καί τινων ἑτέρων κατειληφότων τὴν
πόλιν. προσφάτως μὲν πεντακόσιοι οἱ δυνατώτατοι τῶν Κυρηναίων
ἀνῄρηντο, τῶν δ᾽ ἄλλων ἐπεφεύγεισαν οἱ χαριέστατοι.
[5]
οὐ μὴν ἀλλ᾽ οἱ φυγάδες προσλαμβανόμενοι τοὺς
Μεσσηνίους παρετάξαντο πρὸς τοὺς τὴν πόλιν κατειληφότας, καὶ τῶν μὲν
Κυρηναίων πολλοὶ παρ᾽ ἀμφοτέροις ἔπεσον, οἱ δὲ Μεσσήνιοι σχεδὸν
ἅπαντες ἀνῃρέθησαν.
[6]
μετὰ δὲ τὴν
παράταξιν οἱ Κυρηναῖοι πρὸς ἀλλήλους διαπρεσβευσάμενοι διηλλάγησαν,
καὶ παραχρῆμα ὁρκωμοτήσαντες μὴ μνησικακήσειν, κοινῇ τὴν πόλιν
κατῴκησαν.
[7]
περὶ δὲ τοὺς αὐτοὺς χρόνους Ῥωμαῖοι προσέθηκαν οἰκήτορας εἰς τὰς
ὀνομαζομένας Οὐελίτρας.
