345/4 B.C.When Eubulus was archon at Athens, the Romans elected as
consuls Marcus Fabius and Servius Sulpicius.Eubulus was
archon from July 345 to June 344 B.C. Broughton (1.131) gives the
consuls of 345 B.C. as M. Fabius Dorsuo and Servius Sulpicius
Camerinus Rufus. In this year Timoleon the Corinthian, who had been chosen by his
fellow-citizens to command in Syracuse, made ready for his expedition to Sicily. He enrolled seven hundred mercenaries and, putting his men aboard four
triremes and three fast-sailing ships, set sail from Corinth. As he coasted along he picked up
three additional ships from the Leucadians and the Corcyraeans, and so with ten ships he
crossed the Ionian Gulf.The narrative is continued from
chap. 65. There is a parallel but often differing account of these events in Plut. Timoleon 7.1-3; 8.3, where the ten ships are itemized as
seven Corinthian, one Leucadian, and two Corcyraean. This distinction between t
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.

B.C.When Nicomachus was
archon at Athens, the Romans elected as consuls Gaius Marcius and Titus Manlius Torquatus.Nicomachus was archon at Athens from July 341 to June 340 B.C. The consuls of 344 B.C. were C.
Marcius Rutilius and T. Manlius Imperiosus Torquatus (Broughton, 1.132). In this year,
Phocion the Athenian defeated and expelled Cleitarchus, the tyrant of Eretria who had been
installed by Philip. In Caria, Pizodarus,Above, Chap. 69.2. the younger of the brothers, ousted Ada from her rule
as dynast and held sway for five years until Alexander's crossing over into Asia.Philip, whose fortunes were constantly on the increase, made an expedition
against Perinthus, which had resisted him and inclined toward the Athenians.These events in Philip's career are barely noticed by Justin 9.1.25-5, and only casual references to them occur
elsewhere. He instituted a siege and advancing engines to the city assailed the walls in
relays day a
Pausanias, nevertheless, nursed his wrath implacably,These events cannot be dated exactly, but they must have occurred
some years before the assassination of Philip, perhaps as early as 344 B.C. (Berve, Alexanderreich, 2, p. 308). Pausanias waited a long
time for his revenge, and it is curious that he chose the occasion most advantageous for
Alexander. and yearned to avenge himself, not only on the one who had done him wrong,
but also on the one who failed to avenge him. In this design he was encouraged especially by
the sophist Hermocrates.No sophist Hermocrates is otherwise
known at this time, but it may be possible to identify this man with the grammarian of the
same name who is best known to fame as the teacher of Callimachus. For the latter cp. F.
