Histories

So Pisistratus was sovereign of Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens: and as for the Athenians, some had fallen in the battle, and some, with the Alcmeonids, were exiles from their native land.

So Croesus learned that at that time such problems were oppressing the Athenians, but that the Lacedaemonians had escaped from the great evils and had mastered the Tegeans in war. In the kingship of Leon and Hegesicles at Sparta [22.4417,37.0667] (Perseus) Sparta, the Lacedaemonians were successful in all their other wars but met disaster only against the Tegeans.
