		On one occasion, for instance, Heraclea was afflicted with famine, and the Pythian priestess at Delphi, bribed by Heraclides, assured his inquiring townsmen that the dearth would be stayed if they granted a golden crown to that philosopher.
		This was done; but just as Heraclides was receiving his honor in a crowded assembly, he was seized with apoplexy, while thc dishonest priestess perished at the same moment from the bit of a serpent.
		On his death-bed he is said to have requested a friend to hide his body as soon as life was extinct, and, by putting a serpent in its place, induce his townsmen to suppose that he had been carried up to heaven.

	Dion - The Savior of Syracuse
		Heraclides and Dion had quarrelled over the leadership of the liberation army, so Heraclides had recruited his own force, which he was now bringing to Syracuse.
		The people of Syracuse were angry at Heraclides' negligence, so he got one of their public speakers to change the subject to land reform, arguing that without equality of wealth there could be no liberty, and that poverty meant slavery.
		Heraclides sent a messenger to summon the Syracusans to come and welcome their new commander, Gaesylus, the Spartan general.

	Dion by Plutarch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		But Heraclides and his seamen exclaimed against him, that he had delayed fighting on purpose that he might the longer continue his command; so that, much against his will, he was forced to an engagement and was beaten, his loss, however, being inconsiderable, and that occasioned chiefly by the dissension that was in the army.
		Heraclides, though he strove to make all the speed he could, yet, coming too late, tacked and stood out again to sea; and, being unresolved what course to steer, accidentally he met Gaesylus the Spartan, who told him he was come from Lacedaemon to head the Sicilians, as Gylippus had formerly done.
		Heraclides was only too glad to get hold of him and fastening him as it might be a sort of amulet to himself, he showed him to the confederates, and sent a herald to Syracuse to summon them to accept the Spartan general.

	Achaea, Greek Mythology Link.
		The mingling of Achaeans and Danaans is described through the marriages of two sons of Achaeus 1 (from whom the Achaeans derive their name) with two daughters of Danaus 1, otherwise known as father of the DANAIDS.
		However, when after the Trojan War the HERACLIDES invaded the Peloponnesus—claiming that their rulers, being descended from Pelops 1, were usurpers—the Achaeans were forced to leave Argolis.
		After the king's death his sons quarrelled for the throne and the dispute had to be settled by the oracle of Delphi, which appointed Medon 11 as king.

	Diogenes Laertius: Life of Heraclides, from Lives of the Philosophers, translated by C.D. Yonge
		After he came to Athens, he was at first a disciple of Speusippus, but he also attended the schools of the Pythagorean philosophers, and he adopted the principles of Plato; last of all he became a pupil of Aristotle, as we are told by Sotion in his book entitled the Successions.
		And all this was done; and while the citizens were all attending his funeral and extolling his character, the serpent hearing the noise, crept out of his clothes and threw the multitude into confusion.
		And afterwards everything was revealed, and Heraclides was seen, not as he hoped to have been, but as he really was.

	Gottschalk \| Heraclides of Pontus \| Book #19834 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		A follower of Plato, Heraclides of Pontus (c.388-315 BC) is one of the most enigmatic figures in the history of philosophy.
		Famous in antiquity for the literary and artistic merit of dialogues ranging in subject matter from myths and music to Pythagoras, he has attracted the attention of modern scholars by his obscure theory of matter and an astronomical hypothesis which seems to have partly anticipated Aristarchus and Kepler.
		The book goes on to deal at length with the dialogue, Heraclides' corpuscular theory of matter, the astronomical fragments, ethical and religious fragments, including his influential contribution to the legend of Pythagoras, and historical and literary studies.

		Galen contrasts Heraclides with Menodotus: Heraclides resorts to both sources of medical knowledge, namely perception and reason, whereas it is only at times that Menodotus adds epilogism to memory and perception.
		So, according to P., it is Heraclides who is the introducens of epilogism ("he at times introduces" thus refers to Heraclides), while Menodotus "often does not posit anything in addition to memory and perception".
		But Guardasole, in her edition of Heraclides' fragments (cited by P.), and the French translation of Galen (omitted by P.) disagree.

	The Lost Knowledge of the Greeks (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		During the first decade of the 16th century when Copernicus was still forming his astronomical hypotheses, he read the works of many Greek authors and found that heliocentric ideas had already been propounded.
		However, Heraclides' universe, like that of Hicetus and Ecphantus, was as yet geocentric and his Earth spun at the center of the fixed stars.
		Based upon these historical accounts, it is clear that a special chain of the Greek mathematician-astronomer-cosmologist-philosophers consisting primarily of Philolaus, Heraclides, and Aristarchus had successively evolved a concept of the universe which was in fair agreement with that of Copernicus over 1750 years later.

		If Demetria is discovered doing any evil to the shame of her husband Heraclides, she shall be deprived of all that she brought, but Heraclides shall prove whatever he alleges against Demetria before three men whom they both accept.
		People having selective memories and often strange, idiosyncratic reasoning when it suits their purposes, the wise person will hesitate to pass property to another against future services unless the execution of the agreement can be properly enforced.

		The Heraclides, descended from Hercules and the slave-girl of Jardanus, having been entrusted by these princes with the management of affairs, obtained the kingdom by an oracle.
		Their rule endured for two and twenty generations of men, a space of five hundred and five years; during the whole of which period, from Agron to Candaules, the crown descended in the direct line from father to son.
		The Pythoness, however, added that, in the fifth generation from Gyges, vengeance should come for the Heraclides; a prophecy of which neither the Lydians nor their princes took any account till it was fulfilled.

		I disagree that this was the reason we rejected the settlement last April, but I will agree with Heraclides’ point that Greek Cypriots are in no position to comprehend their responsibilities — the responsibilities of their leadership, to be more precise — for the situation before 1974.
		And we are under the illusion that this pitiful practice is an adequate way of tackling the national problem.
		I would take Heraclides’ views a step further, to their logical conclusion.

		Once again Temenus asked the oracle what went wrong and his answer was that those events were done by the seer and Temenus was advised to banish Hippotes 2 for ten years and to look for the Three-Eyed One to be their guide.
