[1]
Thucydides 2.7.1 and
scholia, though the citations probably come most directly from
Photius,
Lexicon, Lambda207.2. The treaty in question, the Thirty Years Peace of 446/5 between the Greek alliances led by
Athens and
Sparta, was broken (by the Theban attack on Plataea) in 431. For Plataea see
pi 1700; also
epsilon 3954,
xi 20.
[2] See e.g.
Aeschylus,
Prometheus 833; Thuc. 8.67.3.

Procopius,
History of the Wars of Justinian 2.5.1; cf.
alpha 3035. The subject is the Sassanid Persian king Chosroes I (
chi 418), who in 540 CE broke the “perpetual peace” by attacking the Byzantine emperor Justinian I.
