62 - Xenophon, Anabasis V
Cost of Glory
The Raid of the Mosanoikians
Xenophon describes a raid by the Mosanoikians on a stronghold. They see that they can attack this citadel and maybe if they take this stronghold, that they can seize control of the whole Mosanoikian region. The attacking party was followed by some of the Greeks, not under orders from their generals, but seeking plunder. Little foreshadowing about what's going to happen there.
