Notes on the current edition

Archidamus

1. For Athens see Isoc. 8.105 and Isoc. 5.44 . Among the states in Peloponnesus , Phlius, Heraea , and Orchomenus in Arcadia were still true to Sparta . ( Xen. Hell. 7.2.1 , Xen. Hell. 6.5.22 , and Xen. Hell. 6.5.11 .) The reference is to Dionysius the younger, who began to reign 367-366 B.C. His father had given aid to Sparta on various occasions. See Underhill’s note on Xen. Hell. 5.1.28 ( Oxford edition). Nectanebos ( 378-364 B.C.) was king of Egypt at this time. Egypt generally supported those who fought against the Persians, and now the Theban enemies of Sparta were in league with Persia . As to the dynasts of Asia see Isoc. 4.162 and Isoc. 5.103 . Probably such powerful rulers as Mausolus of Caria, who revolted from Persia in 362 B.C., are here meant, as well as the rulers of Cyprus . See Isoc. 5.102 and Isoc. 4.134 .
