BOOK XIII. XXIII

Ch. received back into his country and again made commander. The inhabitants of Antandrus vindicate their freedom. Xenophon and Theopompus take up the history from this point, where Thucydides ends. The Romans wage war against the Aequi. Ol. 92, 3 : 410 BC 43. The Segestans, disputing about territory with the Selinuntians, summon the Carthaginians to their aid. 44. The Selinuntians, defeated by the Segestans, implore the aid of the Syracusans: the Carthaginian war arises in Sicily, waged by Hannibal. 45. Dorieus, heading for Abydus, is overwhelmed by the Athenians and flees to Dardanus. Mindarus and Pharnabazus come to his aid. 46. As they are fighting most fiercely, Alcibiades arrives. The Lacedaemonians take refuge with the Persian forces stationed on the shore; the Athenians withdraw to Sestus. 47. Euboea, which had revolted from the Athenians, is joined to Boeotia by a causeway. When Theramenes could not prevent this work, he plunders the enemy's islands. 48. A most atrocious civil war on the island of Corcyra. 49. Archelaus, king of the Macedonians, subdues the rebellious Pydnaeans with the help of Theramenes. When winter was over, both the Lacedaemonians and the Athenians gather as many ships as possible. Mindarus attacked Cyzicus; the Athenians come to its aid. 50. A battle is fought at Cyzicus. The Lacedaemonian ships are put to flight. 51. The land forces also of the Lacedaemonians and Persians, with Mindarus slain, take to flight. 52. Endius is sent as an envoy by the Lacedaemonians to Athens concerning peace. 53. The Athenians refuse peace. Ol. 92, 4 : 409 BC 54. Hannibal, having crossed to Lilybaeum with a huge army, besieges Selinus. 55—56. The siege of the city of Selinus. 57—58. The city having been captured and burned, the barbarians rage most cruelly against the Selinuntians.
