<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Voulgaroktonou, post: 5308821, member: 84047&quot;]Re: the full name of Daim...the Oxford Classical Dictionary has an entry that reads: “Daimachus, of Plataea. There are two. The elder (before c.350 bc), is one of the first of many Boeotian historians, although Jacoby&#039;s identification of him as the author of the Hellenica Oxyrhynchia is unlikely. The younger was Antiochus I&#039;s ambassador to the court of Bindusāra and wrote a history of India. He, rather than the elder Daimachus, may also be the author of works on siege warfare and on piety.”&nbsp; </p><p>&quot;first of many Boeotian historians&quot;: so this seems to be a common name in Boeotia.</p><p><br /></p><p>Our library has a few books that concern Boeotian prosopography. I will return to my office in a few weeks and will look at these following. Perhaps I can find you something of interest.</p><p><br /></p><p>AUTHOR&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Fossey, John M.</p><p>TITLE&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Studies in Boiotian inscriptions / by John M.
