[edit]

I wanted to note that this is apparently not the battle that is described on 429 BC and List of battles (but I will fix the descriptions there). I may be misreading something somewhere, but in Thucydides this is a land battle, not a naval battle, and Phormio does not seem to be involved (but it leads into Naupactus, so maybe there was some confusion).

More Information

[edit]

This article needs to have more information. Right now the article is barely two paragraphs long. MarkXavier (talk) 05:55, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

The article links to the wrong Xenophon in the following passage "The fall of Potidaea had not succeeded in quelling the rebellion against Athens in Chalcidice. To ensure a steady stream of imperial revenue and suppress additional local uprisings, the Athenians dispatched Xenophon with 2,000 hoplites and 200 cavalry to launch an attack on Spartolos."

Xenophon link changed to Xenophon son of Euripides. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thedordor (talkcontribs) 17:44, 16 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
