He sacked other towns .... did he do a proper job so that we can tell he was there ?
Well Pausanias gives a macabre description of Brennos "party" at Kallion.
(Damned tourists!). It never recovered. It was leveled so thoroughly that
the only thing that was excavated were a few masonry stones and few pottery fragments. The destruction has been dated to 3rd century B.C.
The only destruction at Delphi has been dated A.D. not B.C.
(Never trust a tourist guide) :twisted:
Kind regards
