Pyrrhos 12.
2 Plutarch,
Pyrrhos 12.8
3 Antigonos’ strength is not clear, some thousands of soldiers and tens of ships at least; his problem, as Tarn (1913), 113, notes, was not so much manpower as the money needed to pay his troops.

Pyrrhos 12.9–2; Justin 16.3.1–2; Pausanias 1.10.2.

19 Holbl (2001), 27, dated this death to ‘winter of 283/282’; the coronation of Ptolemy II took place on 7 January 282: Holbl (2001), 35.
20 282 is only a possible date; Holbl (2001), 36, implies 282.

3 Worrle (1975) argues for 270 rather than 275 based on this one inscription. Bar-Kochva (1973), 1–8, concluded it was ‘shortly after April 272’.
4 Rice (1983), now dated 275 by Foertmeyer (1988), 90–104.

20 Tarn (1913), 263–4 and 444–5, not been widely accepted; but Ptolemy had much to gain, Pyrrhos was an old associate of the Ptolemies, and Ptolemy was interested in reducing Antigonos’ power.
