Abstract
The aim of the paper „Two Notes on the Battle of Lade“ is to re-examine two of the arguments pertaining the order of the battles of Lade and Chios. Firstly, it questions yet again the meaning of συμμιγνύναι in Polybios’ analysis of the situation after the battle of Lade (16.10.1). While it is admitted that Walbank’s solution is not convincing, it is maintained that considering the use of συμμιγνύναι, it does seem unlikely that Polybios here meant that the war between Attalos and Philip had not yet begun. Secondly, it re-evaluates the importance of the omission of the name of the Rhodian nauarch in the battle of Lade in Polybios’ polemic against Zeno and Antisthenes (16.15). Considering the introduction in the polemic (16.14) the conclusion is that the stakes are much higher than it might seem, since it is not just a methodological polemic, but a question of veracity and therefore the omission of Theophiliskos is much more suggestive than it might seem.
