      party in that island during the war between Antiochus the Great and Rome, <date when-custom="-192">B. C. 192</date>. He defended Chalcis by means of a league between the Chalcidians,
      Eretrians, and Carystians, and rejected the proposals of the Aetolians to remain neutral
      between Antiochus and the Romans. In <date when-custom="-170">B. C. 170</date> Mictio appeared
      before the senate at Rome as the chief of a deputation sent from Chalcis to complain of the
      cruelty and extortions of two successive praetors in Greece, C. Lucretius and L. Hortensius.
      Mictio, who was lame, was allowed to plead from a litter--a privilege till then unheard
      of--and, on his return, was conveyed to Brundisium in a carriage at the public cost.
