Note 308 — Chapter II · Athens
Reading edition
Meyer, Ges. d. Alt. III. p. 297; Macan, Hdt. IV.-VI. app. III., IV. particularly IV. sect. 8; neither of whom sufficiently emphasizes the political importance for Hippias of these Northern mines. Perdrizet, Klio, X. (1910), p. 12, denies this removal when he says that the Peisistratid’s Thracian possessions had perhaps remained in Athenian hands between 512 and 475.
