a conjectural explanation of the text. Diodorus (xvi 8) states
that Philip, on entering Amphipolis through a breach in the
walls, em'led his adversaries and treated the rest with kindness
(? l)\GI/0ptil'lrw8 rpoonve? XO-q). This is 'confirmed by an inscri -
tion still extant among the ruins of Amphipolis, which recor s
a decree of perpetual banishment, and confiscation of property,
against Stratocles (? 8 l. 65) . . and Philo ' (Thirlwall l. c. ,
Leake Northern Greece iii 187, ASchaefer Dem. ii 22 2).

That Philip 'exercised any unnecessary severity toward them is certainly
not to be believed (says Thirlwall v 197) on the authority of a rhetorician
(Aristeides i 715) who lived many centuries later; but it would not be
incredible that, at the moment of occupation, some blood was shed in a
military or political tumult, which may have given Demosthenes occasion
for an allusion to Philip's conduct, exactly like that which he makes on
the subject of Amphipolis. ' Cp. Liban. iv 973.

'yew'ycreo'daz ;" (schol. ) Thirlwall (v 196) suggests that this is only
a conjectural explanation of the text. Diodorus (xvi 8) states
that Philip, on entering Amphipolis through a breach in the
walls, em'led his adversaries and treated the rest with kindness
(? l)\GI/0ptil'lrw8 rpoonve? XO-q). This is 'confirmed by an inscri -
tion still extant among the ruins of Amphipolis, which recor s
a decree of perpetual banishment, and confiscation of property,
against Stratocles (? 8 l. 65) . . and Philo ' (Thirlwall l. c. ,
Leake Northern Greece iii 187, ASchaefer Dem. ii 22 2).

That Philip 'exercised any unnecessary severity toward them is certainly
not to be believed (says Thirlwall v 197) on the authority of a rhetorician
(Aristeides i 715) who lived many centuries later; but it would not be
incredible that, at the moment of occupation, some blood was shed in a
military or political tumult, which may have given Demosthenes occasion
for an allusion to Philip's conduct, exactly like that which he makes on
the subject of Amphipolis. ' Cp. Liban. iv 973.
