Soon after the fall of Delium, which took
place seventeen days after the battle, the Athenian herald, without knowing
what had happened, came again for the dead, which were now restored by the
Boeotians, who no longer answered as at first.
[2]
Not quite five hundred Boeotians fell in the battle, and nearly one
thousand Athenians, including Hippocrates the general, besides a great
number of light troops and camp followers.
[3]
Soon after this battle Demosthenes, after the
failure of his voyage to Siphae and of the plot on the town, availed himself
of the Acarnanian and Agraean troops and of the four hundred Athenian heavy
infantry which he had on board, to make a descent on the Sicyonian coast.
[4]
Before however all his ships had come to shore, the Sicyonians came up and
routed and chased to their ships those that had landed, killing some and
taking others prisoners; after which they set up a trophy, and gave back the dead under truce.
[5]
About the same time with the affair of Delium
took place the death of Sitalces, king of the Odrysians, who was defeated in
battle, in a campaign against the TribalIi; Seuthes, son of Sparadocus, his nephew, succeeding to the kingdom of the
Odrysians, and of the rest of Thrace ruled by Sitalces.
