“ After the decisive defeat at Crannon (322) , Hypereides and the other orators, whose surrender was demanded by Antipater, were condemned to death by the Athenian partisans of Macedonia. Hypereides fled to Aegina, but Antipater’s emissaries dragged him from the temple of Aeacus, where he had taken refuge, and put him to death; according to others, he was taken before Antipater at Athens or Cleonae. His body was afterwards removed to Athens for burial.
Hypereides was an ardent pursuer of “the beautiful,” which in his time generally meant pleasure and luxury. ”
