      Marion in Cyprus, was one of the petty princes among whom that island was divided at the
      period of its conquest by Ptolemy, king of Egypt. Upon that occasion Stasioecus was one of the
      first to join Seleucus, the admiral of the Egyptian fleet, and to place himself under the
      supremacy of Ptolemy : but in <date when-custom="-313">B. C. 313</date> he abandoned the alliance of
      that monarch, and, in common with several of the other princes of the island, entered into
      negotiations with Antigonus. Before, however, the latter could lend them any support, Ptolemy
      himself arrived in Cyprus with a fleet and army, took Stasioecus prisoner, and razed his city
      to the ground. (<bibl n="Diod. 19.62">Diod. 19.62</bibl>, <bibl n="Diod. 19.79">79</bibl>.) </p><byline>[<ref target="author.E.H.B">E.H.B</ref>]</byline></div></div></body></text></TEI>
