Herodotus (V:12-17) also lists the were the people who inhabited names of various Paionian tribes and speaks of their Macedonia before the arrival of the subjugation at the hands of Darius’ general, Megabazus. ancient Makedones (Macedonians). When referring to “Macedonia” in this article, we Thucydides (II:99) mentions that before the Makedones mean the Vardar / Axios River basin that drains through left their ancestral homeland near the Pindos Mountains, the modern Republic of Macedonia and modern Greece. the Paionians inhabited what would become the core The ancient Greeks and Macedonians referred to the of the ancient Macedonian Kingdom of Philip II and river as the Axios (Αξιος), as do the modern Greeks. Alexander III. From Herodotus and Thucydides it Since the Middle Ages, Slavic-speakers and the Ottoman seems that in the sixth century BC, some of the various Turks called the same river the Vardar. Paionian tribes had become united under a single leadership, while others remained independent. The The earliest mention of the Paionians in ancient Greek precise location of the homelands of many of the Paionian literature is in Homer’s Iliad, in which the Paionians tribes is uncertain, and which of them were conquered appear as allies of the Trojans against the Greeks (Iliad by the Persians in the late sixth and early fifth centuries II:848 seq.). Here Homer mentions the Paionians as BC is also a matter of dispute. What is certain is that the being from Amydon on the “broad stream of the Axios,” Paionians, at this time, were gradually coming into close fighting with curved bows (again mentioned in Iliad contact with the Hellenic world, both through peaceful X: 428 seq.), and being led by a certain Pyraichmes. trade contacts as well as through military confrontation Other Paionian heroes are mentioned, like Apisaon with the Macedonians, who themselves were being (Iliad XVII:348) and Asteropaios (Iliad XVII:351). “Hellenized” at the same time. Asteropaios seems to be the greatest of the Paionian warriors. In Iliad X:140-188 Asteropaios is described The sixth century BC was a period of great power and as a son of Pelegon (a son the river god Axios), from importance for the Paionians, in whatever type of polity the fertile lands of the Paionians watered by the Axios. they may have organized themselves. Asteropaios, a fighter with a long spear, newly arrived (just eleven days previous) at Troy, was slain by Achilles, along with a number of other Paionians. Traditionally the Paionian presence at Troy has been interpreted as two different Paionian tribes, from two different regions of the Axios Valley, led by two chieftains (Pyraichmes and Asteropaios), and arriving at two different times during the war. Such an interpretation would be entirely consistent with what is known about the Paionian tribal structure from later Greek sources. Herodotus mentions, inter alia, some of the Paionians as living near the Strymon River (V:97), that the Paionians were originally from the Troad (V:14), and that Shah Xerxes abandoned some of his materiel and troops in 4 But the fifth and fourth centuries BC saw the gradual dethroned in 285 BC and forced into exile amongst Macedonian conquest of the Paionian tribes.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract In my thesis I examine certain aspects of the political history of Athens in the early Hellenistic period, that is after the battle of Chaironeia in 338 B.C. and until the late 260s. For Athens this was a transitional period; she had to face a completely new political reality: she was no longer the great power of the fifth or even the fourth century B.C., Macedonia rose to power, then Alexander created a huge empire and his death triggered endless struggles for power among his Successors, in which Athens found herself involved. Independent foreign policy then on the part of Athens was impossible; on the other hand, diplomacy became more delicate and demanding than ever. I focus on the ways in which the Athenian leadership (the generals and the orators) adjusted to the circumstances. Firstly, I have examined the role of the generals in diplomacy in order to establish that they did assume increased responsibilities.
