5. A BOEOTIAN, who together with Epaenetus came as ambassador from Boeotia to Messenia, in B. C. 183, just at the time when the Messenians, terrified by Lycortas, the general of the Achaeans, were inclined to negotiate for peace. The influence of the Boeotian ambassadors decided the question, and the Messenians concluded peace with the Achaeans. (Plb. 14.12.)
