Note 367 — Chapter LXXXV · SICILIAN AFFAIRS DOWN TO THE CLOSE OF THE EXPEDITION OF TIMOLEON. B. C. 353-336.
Reading edition
The anecdote about the parsley is given both in Plutarch (Timol. c. 26) and Diodorus (xvi. 79).
The upper portion of the river Krimêsus, near which this battle was fought, was in the mountainous region called by Diodorus ἡ Σελινουντία δυσχωρία: through which lay the road between Selinus and Panormus (Diodor. xxiii. Frag. p. 333, ed. Wess.).
