During the rule of this Laodamas son of Eteocles, the Cadmeans were expelled by the Argives and went away to the Encheleis. The Gephyraeans were left behind but were later compelled by the Boeotians to withdraw to Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens. They have certain set forms of worship at Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens in which the rest of the Athenians take no part, particularly the rites and mysteries of Achaean Demeter.
