History of the Peloponnesian War

But in the case of cities delivered by the Lacedaemonians to the Athenians, their inhabitants shall be allowed to go away wherever they wish, having their own possessions; and these cities, so long as they pay the tribute that was fixed in the time of Aristeides, shall be independent. And it shall not be lawful for the Athenians and their allies, after the ratification of the treaty, to bear arms against the cities to their hurt, so long as they pay the tribute. These cities are Argilus,[*](cf. 4.103.4.) Stagirus,[*](cf. 4.88.2.) Acanthus,[*](cf. 4.88.1.) Stolus, Olynthus,[*](cf. 1.58.2.) Spartolus.[*](cf. 2.79.) These shall be allies neither of the Lacedaemonians nor of the Athenians; but if the Athenians can persuade these cities it shall be lawful for the Athenians to make them, with their own free will and consent, allies to themselves. 6.

"The Mecybernaeans and Sanaeans[*](cf. 4.109.3, 5.) and Singians shall dwell in their own towns on the same terms as the Olynthians and Acanthians. 7. "The Lacedaemonians and their allies shall restore Panactum[*](cf. 5.3.5.) to the Athenians.
