When he was forced to leave Sparta [22.4417,37.0667] (Perseus) Sparta, Aristagoras went to Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens, which had been freed from its ruling tyrants in the manner that I will show. First Hipparchus, son of Pisistratus and brother of the tyrant Hippias, had been slain by Aristogiton and Harmodius, men of Gephyraean descent. This was in fact an evil of which he had received a premonition in a dream. After this the Athenians were subject for four years to a tyranny not less but even more absolute than before.
