2 van Leeuwen, J., Aristophanis Achamenses, pp. 99, 104Google Scholar, supposes that Lamachus was in fact a Taxiarch; he suggests that the word strategos in v. 593 may have been introduced from Euripides' Telephus which, he believes, Aristophanes is parodying here. Kahrstedt, R.E. xii, coll. 537–8 (s. Lamachus), supposes that the poet refers in v. 593 to some prior occasion on which Lamachus had served as a strategos.
