  • πρὸσ δὲ τούτοισ ἐπεὶ συνεστήσαντο τὸν πόλεμον ὕστερον, ὁπλῖται μὲν δισχίλιοι καὶ πεντακόσιοι, νῆεσ δὲ φρουρίδεσ εἴκοσι, ἄλλαι δὲ νῆεσ αἱ τοὺσ φρούρουσ ἄγουσαι τοὺσ ἀπὸ τοῦ κυάμου δισχιλίουσ ἄνδρασ. (Aristotle, Athenian Constitution, work Ath. Pol., chapter 24 3:4)
  • Κλέαρχοσ δὲ ὁ ἁρμοστὴσ οἰόμενοσ οὐδένα ἂν τοῦτο ποιῆσαι, καταστήσασ δὲ ἅπαντα ὡσ ἐδύνατο κάλλιστα καὶ ἐπιτρέψασ τὰ ἐν τῇ πόλει Κοιρατάδᾳ καὶ Ἑλίξῳ, διέβη παρὰ τὸν Φαρνάβαζον εἰσ τὸ πέραν, μισθόν τε τοῖσ στρατιώταισ παρ’ αὐτοῦ ληψόμενοσ καὶ ναῦσ συλλέξων, αἳ ἦσαν ἐν τῷ Ἑλλησπόντῳ ἄλλαι καταλελειμμέναι φρουρίδεσ ὑπὸ Πασιππίδου καὶ ἐν Ἀντάνδρῳ καὶ ἃσ Ἀγησανδρίδασ εἶχεν ἐπὶ Θρᾴκησ, ἐπιβάτησ ὢν Μινδάρου, καὶ ὅπωσ ἄλλαι ναυπηγηθείησαν, ἁθρόαι δὲ γενόμεναι πᾶσαι κακῶσ τοὺσ συμμάχουσ τῶν Ἀθηναίων ποιοῦσαι ἀποσπάσειαν τὸ στρατόπεδον ἀπὸ τοῦ Βυζαντίου.
