Δημοσθένης ἐν τῷ πρὸς Βοιωτόν. ἑορτή ἐστι παρ’ Ἀθηναίοις, ἣν ἄγουσι Πυανεψιῶνι ἐφ’ ἡμέρας δ, ὥς φασιν οἱ τὰ περὶ ἑορτῶν γράψαντες. πόθεν δ᾽ ἐκλήθη ἄλλοι τε πολλοὶ εἰρήκασι καὶ Ἔφορος ἐν β, ὡς διὰ τὴν ὑπὲρ τῶν ὁρίων ἀπάτην γενομένην, ὅτι Ἀθηναίων πολεμούντων πρὸς Βοιωτοὺς ὑπὲρ τῆς Μελανίας χώρας Μέλανθος ὁ τῶν Ἀθηναίων βασιλεὺς Ξάνθον τὸν Θηβαίων μονομαχῶν ἀπατήσας ἀπέκτεινεν.
