Book 24
§1 καὶ ὁ μὲν κατὰ στίχους ἐξελιγμὸς Μακεδὼν αὖ καλεῖται, ἐπειδὰν ὁ λοχαγὸς μὲν μεταβάλληται, οἱ δὲ ὀπίσω ἐκ δόρατος παραπορευόμενοι ἐφεξῆς ἀλλήλων ἱστῶνται.
§2 Λάκων δʼ ἐξελιγμὸς ὀνομάζεται, ἐπειδὰν ὁ λοχαγὸς μεταβαλλόμενος ἐκ δόρατος ὅλον τὸν λόχον μεταλλάξῃ ἐς ἄλλον ἴσον τῷ πρόσθεν τόπον, οἱ δὲ λοιποὶ ἑπόμενοι ἐφεξῆς αὐτῷ τάσσωνται· ἢ ὁπόταν ὁ μὲν οὐραγὸς μεταβάλληται, ὁ δὲ ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ τεταγμένος ἐκ δόρατος τοῦ οὐραγοῦ παραπορευόμενος ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ τάσσηται, καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ ὡσαύτως ἄλλος πρὸς ἄλλου ταχθεὶς τὸν λοχαγὸν αὖ πρωτοστάτην ποιήσωνται.
§3 χόριος δʼ ἐξελιγμὸς γίγνεται, ἐπειδὰν ὁ λοχαγὸς μεταβαλλόμενος ἐπὶ δόρυ προΐῃ ἐπὶ τοῦ λόχου, ἔστʼ ἂν κατάσχῃ τὸν τοῦ οὐραγοῦ τόπον, ὁ δὲ οὐραγὸς τὸν τοῦ λοχαγοῦ.
§4 οὗτοι μὲν οὖν κατὰ λόχους γίγνονται· ὡσαύτως δὲ καὶ οἱ κατὰ ζυγὰ συντελούμενοι, οὐ χαλεποὶ γνωσθῆναι.

The Editor

Rudolf Hercher (1821–1878) was a German classical scholar who edited a wide range of Greek prose texts for the Teubner series, including the Greek epistolographers and several volumes of Greek historians. His output was prodigious, and while some of his editions have been superseded, many remain the most recent critical text available for minor Greek prose authors.

About This Edition

Hercher's Teubner editions, produced during the mid-19th century, provide critical texts of Greek prose authors — many of whom have received little editorial attention since. The editions are characterised by a thorough apparatus criticus and occasionally bold emendation. For many of the texts Hercher edited, no more recent critical edition exists.
