In the tenth year after the seizure of the sanctuary, Philip put an end to the war, which was called both the Phocian War and the Sacred War, in the year when Theophilus was archon at Athens , which was the first of the hundred and eighth Olympiad 1 at which Polycles of Cyrene was victorious in the foot-race. The cities of Phocis were captured and razed to the ground. The tale of them was Lilaea, Hyampolis , Anticyra, Parapotamii, Panopeus and Daulis . These cities were distinguished in days of old, especially because of the poetry of Homer. 2
