	Encyclopedia: Battle of Chaeronea (338 BC)
		The Battle of Chaeronea (338 BC), fought near Chaeronea, in Boeotia, was the greatest victory of Philip II of Macedon.
		There, thanks in part to the fearless cavalry charge of Philip's son and heir, Alexander, Philip (with 32,000 men) defeated the smaller combined forces of Athens and Thebes, securing Macedonian hegemony in Greece.
		The Macedonian phalanx is an infantry formation developed by Philip II and used by his son Alexander the Great to conquer the Persian Empire.

		The dream of the Athenian leader Demosthenes of a pan-Hellenic rebuff to Philip II of Macedon was nearly realized when thirty thousand Greeks in the plain of Chaeronea blocked the southward march of the Macedonians.
		Chaeronea was not proof of the superiority of the Macedonian phalanx with its lighter body armor and lengthier spears.
		Rather, it was a more fundamental reassessment of the entire nature of Greek warfare, a preview of a new military to come, wherein light infantry, cavalry, and the phalanx worked in concert, incorporating feints, reserves, encirclements, and oblique advances to confuse and tear apart less imaginative and slower-moving infantry.

	Plutarch of Chaeronea
		It is not overstated to say that, together with Augustine of Hippo and Aristotle of Stagira, Plutarch of Chaeronea is the most influential ancient philosopher.

		Because Plutarch was a rich man, he became one of the leading citizens of Chaeronea and he is known to have represented his town on several occasions.

	Ancient History Sourcebook: Diodorus Siculus (1st Cent BCE]: The Battle of Chaeronea, 338 BCE
		In 338 B.C. the liberty of the old Greek city-states was blasted at Chaeronea in Boeotia by the victory of Philip of Macedon.
		For he had fought many battles, gained most of them, and so learned much about war, but the best Athenian generals were now dead, and Chares---the chief of them still remaining---differed but little from a common hoplite in all that pertained to true generalship.
		The king ordered his son Alexander, who had just become of age, yet already was giving clear signs of his martial spirit, to lead one wing, though joined to him were some of the best of his generals.

	The Plain Of Orchomenus, Livadia, Chaeronea
		The next day was occupied in a tour across the plain to Orchomenus, then to Chaeronea, and back to Livádia in the evening, so as to start from thence for the passes to Delphi.
		It was on our way up the valley to Chaeronea, along the rapid stream of the Kephissus, that we came, in a little deserted church, upon one of the most remarkable extant specimens of a peculiar epoch in Greek art.
		These and such like thoughts throng the mind of him who sits beside the solitary tomb ; and it may be said in favour of its remoteness and difficulty of access, that in solitude there is at least peace and leisure, and the scattered objects of interest are scanned with affection and with care.

	PLUTARCH
		For the most part, he was a philosopher rather than an historian, interested primarily in the characters of his subjects; the name given to a large corpus of his philosphical works, the Moralia, is a further indication of his penchant for considerations of ethics and proper behaviour.
		A Roman captain of a company that wintered in Chaeronea became passionately fond of this youth, who was now pretty nearly grown a man. And finding all his approaches, his gifts, his entreaties, alike repulsed, he showed violent inclinations to assault Damon.
		Our native Chaeronea was then in a distressed condition, too small and too poor to meet with anything but neglect.
