Cool article! Lemprière gets this stuff from Thyucydides, I presume? I have so put it, please correct if it's wrong, and please regularize the Lemprière's Dictionary reference if you want it to stay. Bishonen 12:21, 20 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Lempriere, as you know, is an Englishman who wrote his dictionary entirely from his memory and his capacious reading. There are mistakes in it, but few. At any rate, I have an 1848 edition, which is in public domain and yet corrected by a few hands since the original. Thus, the text is reliable and yet freely available. However, the amount of changing of wording I did was such that I felt that it wasn't necessary to cite it. I really ought to make a Lempriere template at some point, though, as he's very good for small Classical references. Geogre 19:12, 20 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I cannot find any references to this figure in Thucydides. Herodotus mentions a Hegetorides, but only as the father of another figure, not in his own right.
