Note 1046 — Chapter XCVII · SICILIAN AND ITALIAN GREEKS. — AGATHOKLES. (continued 2)
Reading edition
Diodor. xxi. Fragm. 12. p. 276-278. Neither Justin (xxiii. 2) nor Trogus before him, (as it seems from the Prologue) alludes to poison. He represents Agathokles as having died by a violent distemper. He notices however the bloody family feud, and the murder of the uncle by the nephew.
