      Abdera, whose sister married Sitalces, king of Thrace. The Athenians, who had previously
      regarded Nymphodorus as their enemy, made him their proxenus in <date when-custom="-431">B. C.
       431</date>, and, through his mediation, obtained the alliance of Sitalces, for which they
      were anxious, and conferred the freedom of their city on Sadocus, Sitalces' son. Nymphodorus
      also brought about a reconciliation between the Athenians and Perdiccas, king of Macedonia,
      and persuaded them to restore to him the town of Therma, which they had taken in <date when-custom="-432">B. C. 432</date> (see <bibl n="Thuc. 1.61">Thuc. 1.61</bibl>). In <date when-custom="-430">B. C. 430</date> Nymphodorus aided in the seizure, at Bisanthe, of <hi rend="smallcaps">ARISTEUS</hi> and the other ambassadors, who were on their way to ask aid of
      the Persian king against the Athenians. (<bibl n="Hdt. 7.137">Hdt. 7.137</bibl>; <bibl n="Thuc. 2.29">Thuc. 2.29</bibl>, <bibl n="Thuc. 2.67">67</bibl>; comp. Arist. <hi rend="ital">Atc.</hi> 145.) </p><byline>[<ref target="author.E.E">E.E</ref>]</byline></div></div></body></text></TEI>
