The Origin of Tyranny

Note 1314 — Chapter IX · Sicyon, Megara, Miletus, Ephesus, Leontini, Agrigentum, Cumae

Reading edition

According to one reading of the scholium to Pindar, Nem. IX. it was to these proceedings that Cleisthenes owed his throne: καὶ διὰ ταύτην τὴν εὐεργασίαν τὸ τρίτον τῶν λαφύρων ἔδοσαν τῷ Κλεισθένει καὶ Σικυωνίαν. (See above, n. 1.) But the name of a country in the objective accusative without the article is unusual, and MS. evidence appears to support the reading Σικυωνίοις.
