in the texts
First Philippic
A place invoked as an earlier theater of Athenian action.
You must present to his mind the consideration that you may possibly shake off your excessive apathy and strike out as you did at Euboea, and before that, as we are told, at Haliartus, and quite recently at Thermopylae.
On the Crown
Place to which Athens marched in an earlier campaign.
When the Lacedaemonians, men of Athens, had the supremacy of land and sea, and were holding with governors and garrisons all the frontiers of Attica, Euboea, Tanagra, all Boeotia, Megara, Aegina, Ceos, and the other islands, for at that time Athens had no ships and no walls, you marched out to Haliartus, and again a few days later to Corinth.
Hellenica
A Boeotian city that becomes the site of the pivotal battle in which Lysander is killed and the Lacedaemonian campaign against Thebes ultimately fails.
but this at any rate is clear, that the battle took place beside the wall;
And Lysander, at the head of the army from Phocis, Orchomenus, and the places in that region, arrived at Haliartus before Pausanias.
Having arrived, he did not keep quiet and wait for the army from Lacedaemon, but went up to the wall of the Haliartians with the troops which he had.
