a. ἑπτὰ δ᾿ ἔπειτα πυρᾶν: τῶν διαβεβοημένων ἐστὶ καὶ τοῦτο, πῶς ἑπτά φησι γενέσθαι πυρὰς, [τῶν] ἑπτὰ ἐπιστρατευσάντων καὶ οὐ πάντων καέντων. Ἀμφιάραος μὲν κατεπόθη σὺν τοῖς ἵπποις ἐν Ὠρωπῷ· Πολυνείκης δὲ οὐκ ἐτάφη· ἄταφος γὰρ ἔμεινεν· Ἄδραστος δὲ ζῶν εἰς Ἄργος ἀπῆλθεν. καταλείπονται δ΄, Τυδεὺς, Καπανεὺς, Παρθενοπαῖος, Ἱππομέδων. ὁ μὲν οὖν Ἀρίσταρχός φησιν ὅτι ἰδιάζει καὶ ἐν τούτοις ὁ Πίνδαρος ὡς καὶ ἐν ἄλλοις. ὁ δὲ Ἀριστόδημός φησι τὰς ἑπτὰ πυρὰς . . . ἀπολομένων. οὕτως καὶ Ἱππομέδων καὶ Ἀρμενίδας (FHG IV, 339) γράφουσι· καὶ πυρὰς ποιεῦντες ἑπτὰ ἐπὶ τοῖς †ἕρμεσιν ἐνταῦθα ὅπου καλοῦνται Ἑπτὰ Πυραὶ, ἢ ἀπὸ τῶν ἑπτὰ ἐπὶ Θήβας, ἢ ἀπὸ τῶν ἑπτὰ παίδων Νιόβης ἐκεῖ καυθέντων ἀπὸ τῶν ιδ΄ χωρισθεισῶν τῶν συζυγιῶν.
