From Harpokration s.v.
[1]
Demosthenes 8.29. [This speech,
On the Chersonese, is a "Philippic" in the broad sense employed by ancient scholars, who did not confine it, as we do, to speeches 4, 6, 9, and 10.]
[2] A simplified version of what Harpok. says (citing
Hyperides fr. 51 Jensen and
Phylarchus FGrH 81 F38). More information about the Paralos, from another source, comes in the entry following (
pi 390); and see also
sigma 47, for the Paralos and its sister ship the Salaminia. The Paralos is also mentioned at
pi 387 and
pi 388, as well as
iota 161.
