page 145 note 2 Frazer (Pausanias, note to X. 7. 1) maintained that the expedition was a bona-fide attack on the sanctuary. He explains Herodotus IX. 42, as a mere piece of casuistry on the part of Mardonius. ‘The supposed contradiction,’ he says, ‘does not exist.’ The Persians did not dread the penalty because they had not actually succeeded in sacking Delphi. But this view cannot be maintained in the face of other evidence.

page 145 note 7 This oath is repeated in Diodorus (XI. 3); but, as Macan remarks, the substitution of is significant. The same change appears in Polybius 9. 39. 5.

page 146 note 4 Macan adduces still further evidence for such an insertion; see his note to VIII. 36. 2. on Amphissa.
page 146 note 5 Note to VIII. 35. 8. Valckenaer reads ΛIΛAIEΩN for AIOΛIΔEΩN in Herodotus VIII. 35, and perhaps gives the clue for this route.
