[5] Of the wars waged afterwards by the confederate Greeks, the Achaeans took part in the battle of Khaironeia against the Macedonians under Philip,
425
but they say that they did not march out into Thessaly to what is called the Lamian war,
426
for they had not yet recovered from the reverse in Boeotia. The local guide at Patrai used to say that the wrestler Khilon was the only Achaean who took part in the action at Lamia.
