Demosthenes ((ギリシア語:Δημοσθένης), died 413 BC), son of Alcisthenes, was an Athenian general during the Peloponnesian War. ==Early Military Actions== The military activities of Demosthenes are first recorded from 426 BC when he led an Athenian invasion of Aetolia. This was a failure. Demosthenes lost about 120 Athenians along with his second in command, Procles. Demosthenes' allies also suffered heavy losses.〔Thucydides, "History of the Peloponnesian War" Book 3, 98. (2007, April 11). In Wikisource, The Free Library. Retrieved 21:45, August 25, 2007, from (here )〕 As a result of this loss, Demosthenes did not return to Athens, fearing for his life. However, later that year, Ambracia invaded Acarnania. The Acarnanians sought help from Demosthenes, who was now patrolling the coast of the Ionian Sea with twenty Athenian ships. He landed at Olpae and defeated a Spartan army under Eurylochus, which had come to assist the Ambraciots. Eurylochus was killed in the Battle of Olpae and the Acarnanians and Ambraciots signed a peace treaty.
