11. Ἐντεῦθεν εἰς Πλαταιὰς στάδια σ΄. Ὁδὸς ἡσυχῆ μὲν ἔρημος καὶ λιθώδης, ἀνατείνουσα δὲ πρὸς τὸν Κιθαιρῶνα, οὐ λίαν δὲ ἐπισφαλής. Ἡ δὲ πόλις κατὰ τὸν κωμῳδιῶν ποιητὴν Ποσείδιππον ναοὶ δύ᾿ εἰσὶ καὶ στοὰ καὶ τοὔνομεα, καὶ τὸ βαλανεῖον καὶ τὸ Σπράμβου κλέος, τὸ πολὺ μὲν ἀκτὴ, τοῖς δʼ Ἐλευθερίοις πόλις. Οἱ δὲ πολῖται οὐδὲν ἕτερον ἔχουσι λέγειν, ἢ ὅτι Ἀθηναίων εἰσὶν ἄποικοι καὶ ὅτι τῶν Ἑλλήνων καὶ Περσῶν παῤ αὐτοῖς ἡ μάχη ἐγένετο. Εἰσὶ δὲ Ἀθηναῖοι Βοιωτοί.
