62 It would appear that there is a little confusion here of events. Sy- baris, so noted for its luxury and effeminacy, was destroyed by the people of Crotona, under the command of the athlete Milo. B. C. 510. In B. C.. 360, the Crotoniats were defeated at the river Sagras, by the Locrians and Rhe- gians, 10, 000 in number, although they are said to have amounted to 130, 000.
