Note 626 — Chapter XXXVI · FROM THE IONIC REVOLT TO THE BATTLE OF MARATHON.
Reading edition
The chapter of Herodotus (vi, 40) relating to the adventures of Miltiadês is extremely perplexing, as I have already remarked in a former note: and Wesseling considers that it involves chronological difficulties which our present MSS. do not enable us to clear up. Neither Schweighäuser, nor the explanation cited in Bähr’s note, is satisfactory.
