CHAPTER XI THE CAMPAIGN OF PLATVEA. H. viii. While these events were occurring in Middle Greece, I3i- Mardonius, in the far North, was preparing to move. It is said that before starting he despatched an envoy to make inquiries of the oracles of Northern Greece, at Lebadeia, Abae, and Mount Ptoon, on what subject Herodotus is unable to say with certainty--on the circumstances of the time, he is inclined to think. H. viii. A much more important envoy was despatched to Athens "36- in the person of Alexander, the son of Amyntas, a member of the royal house of Macedonia, who was connected with the Persians by family ties, and with the Athenians by his having held for them the position of Proxenos, or consular agent, in his own country. It may fairly be doubted whether Herodotus got the tale of Alexander's mission from an Athenian or from a Macedonian source, or whether he combined information H. viii. derived from both. The reference to the character of the l36- Athenian people has, on the one hand, a strong Attic H. viii. flavour about it, while the knowledge of the Macedonian metseqq. r0yal famj]y displayed here and elsewhere in his work suggests that Herodotus acquired his information on the spot in the course of a visit to that country.* This tale might, consequently, be derived from Macedonia. This supposition is, however, rendered unlikely, owing to the excessively mistaken forecast which Alexander is described to have made of forthcoming events; and * It has already been remarked that his description of Thermopylae is that of a traveller coming from the north--" from Achaia "--as he himself says.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Persian War and Its Preliminaries: A Study of the Evidence, Literary and Topographical The publication of a version of an old; old story which has been retold in modern times by famous writers, demands an apology even at this day of the making of many books. It can only be justified in case the writer has become possesses of new evidence on the history of the period with which the story is concerned, or has cause to think that the treatment of pre-existing evidence is not altogether satisfactory from a historical point of view. I think I can justify my work on the first of these grounds; and I hope I shall be able to do so on the second. Within the last-century modern criticism of great ability has been brought to bear on the histories of Herodotus and Thycydides. Much of it has been of a destructive nature, and has tended to raise serious doubts as to the credibility of large and important parts of the narratives of those authors. I venture to think that, while some of this criticism must be accepted as sound by every careful student, much of it demands reconsideration. A large part of it has been based upon topographical evidence. Of the nature that evidence I should like to say a few words. Until ten years ago the only military site of first-rate importance in Greek history which had been surveyed was the Strait of Salamis, which the Hydrographic Department of the English Admiralty had included in the field of its world-wide activity.
