1 Later, after the Lamian War (323–322 b.c.), another Corinthian, Dinarchus, is given control of Corinth by the Argead king Antipater. Evidence for close personal relationships between Corinthians and Macedonians is strongest, as D. notes, during the later fourth century b.c.

2 A date of c. 300 b.c. is fully supported by I. McPhee and E. Pemberton in Corinth VII.6: Late Classical Pottery from Ancient Corinth (2012), pp. 18–19. D. agrees with them and also rightly notes that the late-fourth century b.c. was too unsettled politically for any major building projects to have occurred (p. 110).

3 In the past five years, there have been a number of publications that use archaeological data to discuss aspects of Hellenistic Corinth. For example, S.A. James, The Hellenistic Pottery from the Panayia Field, Corinth, UT Austin, doctoral thesis (2010) and Pettegrew, D.K., ‘The Diolkos of Corinth’, AJA 115 (2011), 549–74CrossRefGoogle Scholar.
