Adler number: mu,1068
Translated headword: [he] was like Miltiades and Aristeides
Vetting Status: high
Translation: Both these men were very great. For Aristeides was called 'just' and Miltiades was a general; he served as general at
Marathon.[1] The poet [sc.
Aristophanes] makes mention of the trophy at
Marathon because in the case of the other successes against the barbarians all of Greece was victorious, but the Athenians alone won the victory of
Marathon.
