Huius incolae, a Philomelo incitati, diripuerunt Delphicum templum et Locrenses vicerunt, Olymp. 106. Unde bellum sacrum: quô Phocenses, licet Atheniensibus et Spartanis iuncti, a Thebanis et Locrensibus superati sunt. Philomelus, de rupe in praeceps iit, post quem Onomarchus, postquam Thebanis aliquandiu fortiret restitisset, a militibus suis in mare praecipitatus est, sicque similiter uno ex tribus mortis sacrilegis destinatae generibus periit. Huius filius Phalacus, hostes quidem vicit, tandem vero occisus, bello finem dedit, Olymp. 108. Urbes cum Phocidis destructae, et incolae ad vitam rurestrem damnati sunt. Strabo l. 9. Plin. l. 4. c. 3. Diod. Sic. l. 16. Pausan. in Phocic. Iustin. Oros. etc. Nic. Lloydius.
