: [Greek: Hebe], the word here used, means the time just
before manhood, from about fourteen to twenty years of age; at Sparta
it was fixed at eighteen, so that of [Greek: hoi deka aph' hebes] '
were men of twenty-eight, [Greek: hoi tettarakonta aph' hebes] ' men

[Footnote 640: Plutarch speaks as if Leonnatus had effected his
junction with Antipater before the action was fought. But the real

marches to attack Leonnatus apart from Antipater. Through the superior
efficiency of the Thessalian cavalry under Menon, he gained an
important advantage in a cavalry battle over Leonnatus, who was
himself slain. On the very next day Antipater came up, bringing the
troops from Lamia, and took command of the defeated army.]
