APGRD Notes
The date of this performance is not known. Sositheus was certainly 3rd century BC since he is counted amongst the tragic Pleiad (see TrGF1, CAT A, 5a, p. 54-55). The date range for performance is based on the evidence of the Suda which says that Sositheus flourished around 284/1 BC. The place of performance is not known, here it is assumed that it would have been produced in Athens.
