Sparta Included In the League
Such were the arguments employed on either side.
note
The Achaeans, after listening to both, decided
to admit the city, and accordingly the agreement
was engraved on a tablet, and Sparta became
a member of the Achaean league: the existing citizens having
agreed to admit such of the old exiles as were not considered
to have acted in a hostile spirit against the Achaeans. After
confirming this arrangement the Achaeans sent Bippus of
Argos and others as ambassadors to Rome, to explain to the
Senate what had been done in the matter. The Lacedaemonians also sent Chaeron and others; while the exiles too
sent a mission led by Cletis Diactorius note to oppose the Achaean
ambassadors in the Senate.
