216 See particularly Œnomaus ap. Euseb. Præp. Ev. V. 20.; and concerning
the second see Apollod. II. 8. 2. Pausan. II. 7.
217 Isocrates Archidam, p. 119, only supposes one expedition.
218 Pausan. V. 3. Eusebius ubi sup. Polyæn. I. 9. Compare Heyne ad
Apollod. p. 208.
219 See Strab. IX. p. 427. Ephorus, p. 105. ed. Marx. Compare Stephanus
and Suidas in Naύpaktoς.
220 Bekk. Anecd. Græc. p. 305. 31. στεμματιαῖον. μίμημα τῶν σχεδιῶν αἷς
ἔπλευσαν οἱ Ἡρακλεῖδαι τὸν μεταξὺ τῶν Ῥίων τόπον. Hesychius,
στεμματιαῖον. δίκηλόν τι ἐν ἑορτῇ πομπέων δαιμόνων (as should be
read for δαίμονος, rather than πομπέως for πομπέων with Siebelis ad
Pausan. III. 20. 9). Δίκηλον is explained by Hesychius to be a
Lacedæmonian word for “statue.” These πομπεῖς δαίμονες, the
“conducting deities,” were probably Zeus Agetor (book III. ch. 12. §
5.) and the Carnean Apollo: and their festival doubtless was
connected with the Carnea. At this solemnity then (as it seems) a
boat was carried round, and upon it a statue of the Carnean Apollo
(Ἀπόλλων στεμματίας), both adorned with lustratory garlands, called
δίκηλον στεμματιαῖον, in allusion to the passage from Naupactus.
Compare book II. ch. 3. § 1. ch. 8. § 15.
221 Paus. III. 20. 9.
222 See _Orchomenos_, p. 333. To the passages there quoted may be added
Etymol. in v. Ἀλήτης. And see book II. ch. 8. § 15.
223 There were in later times Acarnanian soothsayers at Thermopylæ,
Herod. VIII. 221. in the case of Pisistratus, and elsewhere.
224 Thucyd. I. 103. The city was afterwards Ætolian: Boeckh. Corp.
Inscript. Gr. No. 1756.
225 Polyb. Excerpt. lib. XII. ap. Mai, Script. Vet. Nov. Coll. vol. II.
p. 386.
226 And of Pleuron with Xanthippe the daughter of Dorus, Apollod. I. 7.
7, although Ætolus is also represented as killing Dorus the son of
Apollo.
227 Perhaps the Ætolians had from early times worshipped the three-eyed
Zeus (Ζεὺς τριόφθαλμος), which Sthenelus the Ætolian brought from
Troy, according to Pausanias II. 24. 5.
228 Oxylus is said to have contracted an alliance with the Heraclidæ in
the island of Sphacteria (Steph. Byzant.); but this story is
probably founded merely on the etymology of the name Sphacteria.
229 As also Pausanias, V. 1. says.
230 Pausan. ubi sup. Strabo X. p. 463. Compare Il. ψ. 630.
231 This is the representation given by Pausanias V. 4. 1. ἐπὶ ἀναδασμῷ
τῆς χώρας.
232 Pausan. V. 15. 7. Concerning the Tyrrhenians who accompanied them,
see _Orchomenos_, p. 443. note 3, together with Pausan. II. 31. 3.
Of the Thebans, who are said to have joined under Autesion, see a
detailed account in the same place.
233 As, _e.g._, Apollodorus evidently.
