in the texts
Hellenica
The colonists of Heracleia in Trachis who are betrayed by the Achaeans and suffer heavy losses along with their governor Labotas.
At about the same time, also, the colonists of Heracleia, in Trachis, were betrayed by the Achaeans in a battle where both peoples were drawn up against their enemies, the Oetaeans, and as a result about seven hundred of the Heracleots perished, together with the Lacedaemonian governor, Labotas.
Upon arriving at Heracleia, however, he destroyed the walled city of the Heracleots, manifestly having no fear that when this passage-way had been thus thrown open anyone would march against his own dominion, but rather making provision that none should seize Heracleia, situated as it was at a narrow pass, and block his way if he wanted to march to any place in Greece.

Apollodorus Against Callippus
The people of Heraclea, whose proxenos Callippus claims to be.
More than this, when he was brought to Argos, wounded, he gave to Strammenus, the Argive proxenos of the Heracleotes, the property which was brought in with him.
Immediately after this mischance this man Callippus came to the bank, and asked whether they knew Lycon, the Heracleote.
It happens that I am proxenos of the Heracleotes, and you would be glad, I should think, to have me get the money rather than an alien who resides in Scyros, and is a man of no account.
