      leading man in the Aetolian state at the time of the Achaean league. He is first mentioned in
       <date when-custom="-221">B. C. 221</date>, when he negociated the alliance between the Illyrian
      chief Scerdilaidas and the Aetolians. It was through his persuasive speech that Philip of
      Macedonia and his allies were induced to make peace with the Aetolians (<date when-custom="-218">B.
       C. 218</date>), and he was elected general of the latter in the following year, though his
      conduct in recommending peace was soon afterwards blamed by his fickle countrymen. (<bibl n="Plb. 4.16">Plb. 4.16</bibl>, <bibl n="Plb. 5.103">5.103</bibl>_<bibl n="Plb. 5.107">107</bibl>.)</p></div></div></body></text></TEI>
