5 A good account of Philip's seizures of Amphipolis, Pydna, Potidaea, and Crenides is found in Pickard-Cambridge, Cambridge Ancient History, 6.207-208. This account omits, as does Diodorus, Athens' declaration of war on Philip's retention of Amphipolis, which is attested by Isoc. 5.2; Aeschin. 2.21, 70, 72, Aeschin. 3.54; and IG, 2(2). 127 (πόλεμος πρὸς Φίλιππον) of the year 356. For Amphipolis see also note on chap. 3.3; Theopompus fr. 43 (Oxford); Dem. 1.8; 2.6; 7.27-28; and on the exiles also Dittenberger, Sylloge, 1(3). 194.
6 For Pydna see Dem. 20.63; Dem. 1.5.
7 For the alliance between Philip and Olynthus see Dem. 23.108; Dem. 2.14; Dem. 6.20; also Robinson, Transactions of the American Philological Association, 65 (1934), 103-122.
8 On Crenides see chap. 3.7 and note.
9 Worth about $6.25. According to Seltman, Greek Coins, 200-201, the issue of Philippi bore the name of the town ΦΙΛΙΠΠΩΝ (see Plate XLVI 7) and only after 348 began the issue of Philippeioi. See also West, "The Early Diplomacy of Philip II of Macedon Illustrated by his Coins," Numismatic Chronicle, 3 (1923), 169 ff.
