IG II2 236 and Philip’s Common Peace of 337
Abstract
The inscription IG II2 236 is key in the study of Philip II’s Common Peace after Chaeronea and in the making and definition of the League of Corinth. However, there are many issues that allow to doubt about this adscription of the epigraphical source. A full review of the tradition concerning its interpretation, and a new date, is purposed in the following pages.
