		Though the-city itself was taken by the barbarians, and Dexippus with his band was cut off from it, he made an unexpected descent upon Peiraeeus and took vengeance upon the enemy.
		It com menced in the reign of Decius, and was brought to a close by Aurelian.
		Photius praises the style and diction of Dexippus, especially in the third work, and looks upon him as a second Thucydides ; but this praise is highly exaggerated, and the frag ments still extant shew, that his style has all the faults of the late Greek rhetoricians.

		Like that of Dexippus, Porphyry's short question-and-answer, or 'catechism' commentary is incomplete, breaking off in the middle of a discussion of the contents of ch.
		Porphyry's is somewhat more summary than that of Dexippus, but we must remember that Porphyry already had under his belt that monument of erudition, his big commentary To Gedalius, which is lost, but which we can see from Simplicius formed the basis for all later Neoplatonist commentary on the Categories.
		We await now only the translation of Boethius' commentary to have the fullest available picture of the complex relationships between the members of this little nest of works (though of course the monstrous task of translating the great commentary of Simplicius would be required to complete the larger picture).

		Dexippus seized on some one, and was for haling him to the Spartan governor.
		My plea is that I know the prisoner to be an honest man. As to Dexippus, I know that he was chosen by the army to command a fifty-oared galley, which we had obtained by request from the men of Trapezus for the express purpose of collecting vessels to carry us safely home.
		But this same Dexippus betrayed his fellow-soldiers, with whom he had been delivered from so many perils, and made off into hiding like a runaway slave, whereby we have robbed the Trapezuntines of their frigate, and must needs appear as knaves in their eyes for this man's sake.

		Dexippus of Athens, Eunapius of Sardis and Olympiodorus of Thebes wrote the history of the Roman Empire in the third, fourth and fifth centuries A.D., respectively.
		It is generally accepted that Eunapius continued Dexippus and that Olympiodorus continued Eunapius; however, continuation should not be considered to imply imitation of the predecessor’s historiographical practice.
		It is equally certain that Eunapius did not take the Chronica as his model, for he adopts a regnal, not an annalistic structure, and declares that precise and detailed chronology is not needed in a didactic history like his (fr.

		However, when they were interested in the actual ethnic belonging of the tribes, they could have been more specific, if they had had the necessary information.
		Under the influence of the views of Pliny the Elder on the name "Scythians", the eminent 3rd century historian Dexippus referred to the "Barbarians" attacking to the south of the Danube, led by the Goths, with the collective ethnicon "Scythians." [2] This name was widely used by the Byzantine authors even after the 12th century.
		When Dexippus and later the 4th century authors — Eusebius, Eunapius, and Philostorgius — who used him as a source, identified "Scythians" with "Goths", this did not exclude at all the real participation of other ethnic groups in the incursions, but reflected the military and political supremacy of the Goths.

	Iranica.com - OXYARTES
		This is the traditionally accepted form of the name of a Bactrian (explicitly so Arrian, Anabasis 4.18.4; 7.4.4; Dexippus F 8,5 J.; not: Sogdian) nobleman in the time of Alexander the Great; he was the father of three grown sons (Curtius Rufus 8.4.21f.) and several daughters (Arrian 4.18.4), the most famous of whom was Rhoxane.
		He was one of the confidants of Bessus, with whom he fled from Alexander in 329 B.C.E., after the death of Darius III Codomannus, by crossing the river Oxus and moving towards Nautaca in Sogdiana (Arrian, Anabasis 3.28.9f.).
		A squadron of foot soldiers and cavalry under a certain Androbazus was detached by Oxyartes in 317 B.C.E. for the wars against Peithon (on the side of the satraps of eastern Iran) and Antigonus (on the side of Eumenes of Cardia) respectively (Diodorus 19.14.6; 27.5).

		Dexippus, however, added virtually nothing to the considerations of Porphyry and Iamblichus.
		quotes Dexippus' refutation of Plotinus showing that, while Plotinus would have genuine substance stand at the head of a series or taxis, from which the sensible pseudo-substances derive, in fact, Plotinus is simply misreading Aristotle here.
		Dexippus insists that Aristotle's concern is with the linguistic expressions which are used for substantial predication, and so Plotinus' investigation concerning substances is pointless.

		Under these circumstances they chose Cheirisophus, who, after his election, stepped forward and said: "Nay, sirs, be well assured of this, that had you chosen some one else, I for my part should not have set up factious opposition.
		As to Xenophon, I believe you have done him a good turn by not appointing him; for even now Dexippus has gone some way in traducing him to Anaxibius, as far as it lay in his power to do so, and that, in spite of my attempts to silence him.
		At this point Agasias stepped forward and said: "It was I, Cleander, 21 who rescued the man before you yonder from Dexippus, when the latter was carrying him off, and it was I who gave the order to strike Dexippus.

		For instance, considerable portions of the original text of the Chronicle of Eusebius have been restored by the aid of George's work.
