Δειπνοσοφισταί Athenaeus of Naucratis

Kitap 12

43 But in the work of Theopompus, entitled, Concerning the Money of which the Temple at Delphi was pillaged, he says—Chares the Athenian got sixty talents by means of Lysander. And with this money he gave a banquet to the Athenians in the market-place, celebrating a triumphal sacrifice in honour of their victory gained in the battle which took place against the foreign troops of Philip. And these troops were commanded by Adæus, surnamed the Cock, con- cerning whom Heraclides the comic poet speaks in the following manner— But when he caught the dunghill cock of Philip Crowing too early in the morn, and straying, He killed him; for he had not got his crest on. And having killed this one, then Chares gave A splendid banquet to the Athenian people; So liberal and magnificent was he. And Duris gives the same account.
