[7] In the territory of Khaironeia are two trophies, which the Romans under Sulla set up to commemorate their victory over the army of Mithridates under Taxilos. But Philip, son of Amyntas, set up no trophy, neither here nor for any other success, whether won over Greeks or barbarians, as the Macedonians were not accustomed to raise trophies.

Χαιρωνεῦσι δὲ δύο ἐστὶν ἐν τῇ χώρᾳ τρόπαια, ἃ Ῥωμαῖοι καὶ Σύλλας ἔστησαν Ταξίλον καὶ στρατιὰν τὴν Μιθριδάτου κρατήσαντες. Φίλιππος δὲ οὐκ ἀνέθηκεν ὁ Ἀμύντου τρόπαιον οὔτε ἐνταῦθα οὔτε ὁπόσας μάχας ἄλλας βαρβάρους ἢ καὶ Ἕλληνας ἐνίκησεν· οὐ γάρ τι Μακεδόσιν ἱστάναι τρόπαια ἦν νενομισμένον.
