Hellenica
The territory of the Bithynian Thracians with whom the Calchedonians deposit their property and with whom Alcibiades treats.
Now the Calchedonians, when they learned that the Athenians were approaching, had put all their portable property in the keeping of the Bithynian Thracians, their neighbours.
Alcibiades, however, taking a few of the hoplites and the cavalry, and giving orders that the ships should sail along the coast, went to the Bithynians and demanded the property of the Calchedonians, saying that if they did not give it to him, he would make war upon them;
and then, from that time on making common camp with the Greeks, they continued to plunder Bithynia and lay it waste with fire.

Roman province, including the city of Apamaea, cited for retaining local self-government.
Thus, Pliny, in his letters, informs us, that in the proconsular province of Bithynia, the city of Apamaea was allowed to regulate the form of her government at her own pleasure, and, in other places, the Bithynians were permitted to retain their own magistrates, and their own senate.
