Notes:
As Adler notes, Gaisford and Bernhardy linked this quotation -- which she herself attributed to
Aelian -- with the Persian-War episode recounted in
Herodotus 9.5.2 (Lykides) and
Demosthenes 18.204 (Kyrsilos,
kappa 2770).
For 'they stoned to death' cf.
kappa 940.
Keywords: biography; ethics; historiography; history; military affairs
