		In the daily internal political squabbles and battles, Medism was often used as a weapon, and even a deadly weapon, thus, for example, against Themistocles (in 471 B.C.E.) and Pausanias, despite their victories over the Persians near Salamis and at Plataeae respectively.
		Medism was regarded a serious offence, since the interest of the whole of Greece was at stake and not only that of a single city.
		In the case of Pausanias the reproach of conspiracy with the Persians was substantiated by his manner of dressing in the Persian fashion, his Oriental bodyguard, and his alleged intention to marry one of the Great King's daughters (Thucydides 1.95.3-6; 128.3-135.3).

	Anaxagoras - Wikinfo
		The ignorant polytheism of the time could not tolerate such explanation, and the enemies of Pericles used the superstitions of their countrymen as a means of attacking him in the person of his friend.
		Anaxagoras was arrested on a charge of contravening the established dogmas of religion (some say the charge was one of Medism), and it required all the eloquence of Pericles to secure his acquittal.
		Even so he was forced to retire from Athens to Lampsacus (434-433 BC), where he died about 428 BC, honoured and respected by the whole city.

		Hornblower argues that anachrony (narrating something out of sequence) reflects Thucydides' intention to put "events in the wrong file or box" ("Narratology," 139) to conceal their significance, and is symptomatic of his Athenian bias.
		Badian measures the distorting effect of Herodotos' mythos upon his presentation of Athens and Alexander I. The events Herodotos' emplotment suppresses, however, are B's conjectures (Alexander's mediation of a deal between Persia and Macedon c.511, Alexander's mediation of Athens' submission to Artaphrenes and hence the reason why he was euergetes at Athens).
		But Herodotos' mythos is compatible with Athenian "slavery" and medism.

		It is clear that, if we adopt the chronology of Demetrios of Phaleron, the trial of Anaxagoras must be placed early in the political career of Perikles.
		That is the tradition preserved by Satyros, who says that the accuser was Thoukydides, son of Melesias, and that the charge was impiety and Medism.
		As Thoukydides was ostracised in 443 B.C., that would make it probable that the trial of Anaxagoras took place about 450 B.C., and would bring it into connexion with the ostracism of the other teacher of Perikles, Damon.
