If I am to draw a conclusion from the age of Chilon based on the statue made by Lysippus, the war in which he fell appears to be either the campaign at Chaeronea, where all the Achaeans fought collectively, or else, standing alone among the Achaeans in valor and daring, he faced Antipater and the Macedonians by Lamia in Thessaly.

But they sent this statue of Archidamus, it seems to me, chiefly because of the exceptional circumstances of his death: fate overtook him in a foreign country, and he alone, of all the Spartan kings, is known to have been denied proper burial.	Archidamus is a Spartan king and the sentence explains a statue commemorating his death and burial, a post-mythic historical figure and event.

6.4.11	3	historical	high	ἐκπεσὼν δὲ ὑπὸ στασιωτῶν ἐκ Κνωσσοῦ καὶ ἐς Ἱμέραν ἀφικόμενος πολιτείας τʼ ἔτυχε καὶ πολλὰ εὕρετο ἄλλα ἐς τιμήν.
