Xenophon\'s 6,000 survivors

[Duncan Head]

Some of them came back to Europe with Agesilaus and fought against the Thebans and their allies at Coronea in 394: Xenophon (Hellenica III.4.20) refers to Herippidas taking command of "the Cyreians", the survivors of the 10,000; and at IV.3.16 and 17 to Herippidas still commanding mercenaries at Coronea. He doesn't say how many Cyreians there were left.
