Pausanias Description of Greece 1.43.3

[3] In the city are tombs [ taphoi] of Megarians. They made one for those who died in the invasion of the Medes [Persians], and what is called the Aisymnion [‘Shrine of Aisymnos’] was also a tomb [ mnēma] of heroes [ hērōes]. When Agamemnon’s son Hyperion, the last who ruled-as-king [ basileuein] over the people of Megara, was killed by Sandion for his greed [ pleonexiā] and violence [ biā], they resolved no longer to be ruled-by-kings [ basileuesthai] by way of one-man rule, but to have elected [ hairetoi] magistrates [ arkhontes] and to obey one another by-taking-turns [ ana meros]. Then Aisymnos, who had a reputation [ doxa] second to none among the Megarians, came to the god [ theos] in Delphi and asked in what way they could be-fortunate [ eudaimoneîn]. The god [ theos] said-in-oracular-reply [ khrêsai] that they would fare well if they took-counsel [ bouleuein] with the majority. This poetic-utterance [ epos] they took to refer to the dead, and built a council-chamber [ bouleutērion] in this place in order that the tomb [ taphos] of their heroes [ hērōes] might be inside the council-chamber [ bouleutērion].
