2 Continued from chap. 2, above. It is incredible that the assassination of Attalus could have occurred without the connivance of Parmenion, who may have been pleased to be rid of the head of a rival faction at court (but Curtius 6.9.18 reports that Attalus was Parmenion's son-in-law). And Attalus could not be left alive after the execution of his niece.
3 Continued from Book 16.52. Cp. Justin 10.3.
4 Ochus has been mentioned previously by his throne name Artaxerxes.
5 The king lists give Arses two years, 338-336 B.C., but he was in his third regnal year at the time of his death. His second year, 337/6 B.C., was the only full one which he enjoyed.
6 Artaxerxes II, 405-359 B.C.
