Reading edition

Radet, Lydie, p. 172. There is, however, pace Radet (pp. 82, 134), no evidence that the Melas, son-in-law of Gyges, described by Nic. Dam. F.H.G. III. p. 396 as prince of Daskylion was an ancestor of Melas the father of Pindarus (so also Gelzer, Rhein. Mus. XXXV. pp. 520–1) and a predecessor of this later Melas as tyrant of Ephesus. Radet assumes the Daskylion of Nic. Dam. to be a mistake for Ephesus.
