		Pausanias believed in the Greek mythology of the day, including creatures like griffins, giants and satyrs, but he made practical interpretations of organic remains, arguing that the the skeletons of supposed giants he encountered had belonged to mortals, not dieties.
		Pausanias once interviewed a man who lived along the banks of the Hellespont, in what is now Dardanelles, Turkey, and who had seen what he believed to be the giant skeleton of the Greek champion Ajax.
		Pausanias recounted the man's description of the hero's kneecap as "exactly the size of a discus for the boy's pentathlon." Considering discuses thrown by adult athletes range from 6.5 to 9 inches, this would put the size of Ajax's kneecap at 5 to 6 inches across.

		The sons of Aeropus would believe that, with themselves as Regents and the "grandchild" of Attalus (and thus, Parmenion) on the throne, an alliance could be built between the most powerful factions.
		Enlisting the cooperation of Pausanias, under the guise of friendship, Heromenes and Arrhabaeus (and possibly Alexander, who quickly switched to the winning side and may even have testified against his own brothers to save his life) plotted the death of Philip.
		That the spear hit as Pausanias fell, thus striking higher than we believe Leonnatus intended, was a fluke - but a fluke that allowed a number of conspirators to escape detection and punishment.

		The accuracy of Pausanias' descriptions has been borne out by the remains of the buildings he describes.
		The most dramatic example of this is a note regarding the Lion-gate and the existing circuit wall of the Acropolis at Mycenae, in which the author mentions some tombs "within the wall." Heinrich Schliemann, following this hint, found the tombs during his excavations in the late nineteenth century.
