Demosthenes, Against Olympiodorus, section 26 (search)
When the jurors had thus
decided, the archon PythodotusThe date was
343 B.C. in accordance with the law
struck out the claim of the defendant; and when this claim was stricken out I
necessarily had to abandon my claim to half the estate. After these steps had
been taken, the archon adjudged the estate of Comon to our opponents; for the
laws compelled him to do so.
Demosthenes, Against Conon, section 3 (search)
Two years ago I went out to Panactum,Panactum was an Athenian fort on the borders of Boeotia. An expedition to this point in
343 B.C . is mentioned by Demosthenes in Dem. 19.326. However, as we are told by Aristot. Ath. Pol. 42.4, that the
e)/fhboi (young men of military
age), in the second year of their training, patrolled the country
and spent their spare time in the forts, it may be that no formal military
expedition is meant. In that case the loose discipline is more
understandable. where we had been ordered to do garrison duty. The
sons of the defendant, Conon, encamped
near us, as I would to heaven they had not done; for our original enmity and our
quarrels began in fact just there. How these came about, you shall hear. These
men used always to spend
Demosthenes, Against Theocrines, section 28 (search)
To prove these facts there is no need of my calling
witnesses before you, for you all know that in the archonship of LyciscusThat is, in 343
B.C. the Thesmothetae were deposed from office by vote of the popular
assembly because of Theocrines. Remembering this, you ought to assume that he is
no different now from what he was then.Not long
after he was removed from office, when his brother died by a violent death,
Theocrines showed himself so utterly heartless toward him that, when he had made
inquiry concerning those who had done the deed, and had learned who they were,
he accepted a bribe, and let the matter drop.That is, he accepted the blood-price instead of bringing the murderers to
justice.
344/3 B.C.When Lyciscus was archon at Athens, the Romans elected as
consuls Marcus Valerius and Marcus Publius, and the one hundred and ninth Olympiad was
celebrated, in which Aristolochus the Athenian won the foot-race.Lyciscus was archon at Athens from July 344 to June 343 B.C. The Olympic Games were celebrated in mid-summer of 344 B.C. M. Valerius Corvus and M. Popilius Laenas were consuls in 348 B.C. (Broughton, 1.129). In this year the first treaty was concluded
between the Romans and the Carthaginians.This treaty is
mentioned also by Livy 7.27.2, and Polybius
3.24. Diodorus does not know of the earlier treaty given by Polybius
3.22 (cp. H. M. Last, Cambridge Ancient History, 7 (1928), 859 f.; A. Aymard, Revue des Etudes Anciennes, 59 (1957), 277-293).
In Caria, Idrieus, the ruler of the Carians, died after ruling
seven years, and Ada, his sister and wife, succeeding him, ruled for four years.Continued from chap. 45.7.
In Sicily,
340/39 B.C.When Theophrastus was archon at Athens, the Romans elected as
consuls Marcus Valerius and Aulus Cornelius, and the one hundred and tenth Olympiad was
celebrated, in which Anticles the Athenian won the foot-race.Theophrastus was archon at Athens from July 340 to June 339 B.C.
The Olympic Games were celebrated in mid-summer of 340 B.C.
Broughton (1.132) lists the consuls of 343 B.C. as M. Valerius
Corvus and A. Cornelius Cossus Arvina.
In this year, seeing that Philip was besieging Byzantium, the
Athenians voted that he had broken his treaty with them and promptly dispatched a formidable
fleet to aid that city. Besides them, the Chians, Coans, Rhodians, and some others of the
Greeks sent reinforcements also. Philip was frightened by this
joint action, broke off the siege of the two cities, and made a treaty of peace with the
Athenians and the other Greeks who opposed him.This account
of Diodorus differs from the
Hyperides, In Defence of Euxenippus, section 19 (search)
Yes, you say; for he committed a serious crime in regard to the cup which he allowed Olympias to dedicate to the statue of Health.Olympias, mother of Alexander the Great, was sent by him about 331 B.C. to Epirus, where her brother Alexander was king. On the death of the latter she became regent for the young prince Neoptolemus and so controlled Molossia, which had been attached to the kingdom by Philip in 343 B.C. The statue of Health stood on the Acropolis. (See Paus. 1.23.5.) It is not known how Euxenippus was connected with this affair. You think that if you bring her name irrelevantly into the case to serve your own ends and accuse Euxenippus of deceitful flattery, you will bring down the jury's hatred and anger upon him. The thing to do, my friend, is not to use the name of Olympias and Alexander in the hope of harming some citiz

FROM PEIRESC
Y.R. 411
WHEN the Roman generals Cornelius and Corvinus, and B.C. 343 the plebian Decius, had overcome the Samnites they left a military guard in Campania to ward off the Samnite incursions. These guards, partaking of the luxury and profuseness of the Campanians, were corrupted in their habits and began to envy the riches of these people, being themselves very poor and owing alarming debts in Rome. Finally they took counsel among themselves to kill their entertainers, seize their property, and marry their wives. This infamy would perhaps have been carried out at once, had not the new general Mamercus, who was marching against the Samnites, learned the design of the Roman guard. Concealing his intentions, he disarmed some of them and dismissed them, as soldiers entitled to discharge for long service. The more villanous ones he ordered to Rome on the pretence of important business, and he sent with them a military tribune with o
