Notes on the current edition

Library

1. For lists of the seven champions who marched against Thebes, see Aesch. Seven 375ff. ; Soph. OC 1309ff. ; Eur. Ph. 1090ff. and Eur. Supp. 857ff. ; Diod. 4.65.7 ; Hyginus, Fab. 70 .
2. The place of Eteocles among the Seven Champions is recognized by Aesch. Seven 458ff. , Soph. OC 1316 , and Euripides in one play ( Eur. Supp. 871ff. ), but not in another ( Eur. Ph. 1090ff. ); and he is omitted by Hyginus, Fab. 70 . His right to rank among the Seven seems to have been acknowledged by the Argives themselves, since they included his portrait in a group of statuary representing the Champions which they dedicated at Delphi. See Paus. 10.10.3 .
3. Brother of Adrastus. See Apollod. 1.9.13 .
