	The Greeks - Pericles
		With the politician Thucydides gone, Pericles remained secure as Athens' leading statesman for the rest of his life.
		Thucydides was Pericles' main rival for a number of years but eventually followed Cimon into exile in 443, having also lost an ostracism vote.
		In the early years of Pericles' power he was constantly challenged for the leadership of Athens.

	Archaeological find opens the pages of Ancient Greek history
		The find is stunning because these may be the very Athenian soldiers over whom the politician Pericles delivered his famous funeral oration, rendered by the historian Thucydides in his contemporaneous History of the Peloponnesian War, one of the first documents of scientific history.
		Thucydides almost certainly heard Pericles speak in 431.
		Although it is unlikely that he recorded the speech verbatim, it is widely believed that he gave an accurate accounting of the sense of the speech.

	Harmodius and Aristogeiton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 346 BC, for example, the politician Timarchus was prosecuted (for political reasons) on the grounds that he had been a prostitute.
		In 514 BC Hipparchus sought the sexual favours of Harmodius, who was, the historian Thucydides tells us, "then in the flower of youthful beauty," which would have made him about 15.
		Harmodius (circa 530 BC - 514 BC) and Aristogeiton (circa 550 BC - 514 BC), known as "the Liberators" and "the Tyrannicides", became heroes in Athens through their role in the overthrow of the Tyranny of the Peisistratid family.

	Alcibiades
		According to the historian Thucydides, who knew Alcibiades well and judged him dispassionately, it was the fact that the Spartans instead chose to negotiate through established political leaders that dictated Alcibiades' subsequent choice of policies.
		Alcibiades, however, escaped ostracism, a form of banishment, by joining forces with Nicias against Hyperbolus, the successor of the demagogue politician Cleon as champion of the common people.
		This alliance was defeated by Sparta at the Battle of Mantineia (418).

	Encyclopedia: Harmodius and Aristogeiton
		Harmodius was the eromenos (younger lover) of Aristogeiton, whom Thucydides describes as "a citizen then in middle rank of life" - possibly aged about 35 and a member of one of the old aristocratic families.
		In 346 BC, for example, the politician Timarchus was prosecuted (for political reasons) on the grounds that he had been a prostitute.
		Hipparchus, spurned, avenged himself by having Harmodius' young sister disqualified from carrying a ceremonial offering basket at the Panathenaea festival on the pretext she was not a virgin, as was required.
