Adler number: upsilon,249
Translated headword: Hyperboros, Hyperborus
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
He was a demagogue, whom Thucydides in [book] 8 says was ostracized.[1]
Greek Original:
*(upe/rboros: dhmagwgo\s h)=n, o(\n *qoukudi/dhs e)n th=| h# e)cwstraki/sqai fhsi/n.
Notes:
From Harpokration (and Photius) s.v. Hyperbolos -- but the Suda mss do corrupt the name to Hyperboros (and observe the alphabetical order of the corrupted version). For the real thing see under upsilon 245.
[1] Thucydides 8.73.3 (web address 1). For ostracism see generally omicron 716, omicron 717.
