Open translation for this passage
πόλεων γὰρ τῶν ἐν Ἀρκαδίᾳ ταῖς μὲν ἐπειλημμέναις δόξης οὐδὲ τὰ ἐς τοὺς οἰκιστάς ἐστιν ἄγνωστα, τὰς δὲ ἐξ ἀρχῆς τε ὑπὸ ἀσθενείας ἀφανεστέρας καὶ διʼ αὐτὸ ἀνοικισθείσας ἐς Μεγάλην πόλιν, οὐ περιέχει σφᾶς γενόμενον τότε ὑπὸ τε τοῦ Ἀρκάδων κοινοῦ δόγμα;
The sentence is textually difficult: ἐστιν ἄγνωστα governs the first coordinated accusative subject phrase, while the second accusative city-group is coordinated after δέ; περιέχει is likely an elliptical/discordant continuation, and the final phrase depends on a supplied or corrupt construction. Heads reflect the most plausible analysis, with uncertainty marked.
