Vetting Status: high
Translation:
This man, when he succeeded to the rule of the Macedonians,[1] was besieged at Lamia in Thessaly[2] by [the] Greeks; but, when the Aitolians withdrew and then the others, he was saved. Having won the victory he demanded the ten orators, whom the Athenians handed over: Demosthenes, Hyperides, Lykourgos, Polyeuktos, Ephialtes, Thrasyboulos, Chares, Charidemos, Diotimos, Patrokles, Kassandros.[3]

Notes:
See already alpha 2703. For the present material cf. delta 456.
[1] Not the kingship but the regency, after Alexander the Great's death in 323 BC.
[2] See under lambda 84.
[3] A conflation of (eleven!) names from this and other periods. The orator Lykourgos (Lycurgus), for example, had already died in 325/4 BC; and Kassandros was Antipater's own son.
