An Approach to the Timoleon’s Settlement Policies in Sicily
Abstract Beaten by civil and ethnic conflicts, Diodorus, Plutarch and Nepos present a devastated and deserted Sicily in the mid-fourth century B.C. Despite his fame as liberator and anti-tyrant, Timoleon the Corinthian promotes in Sicily a huge movement of recolonization which includes forced displacements of population that recall the very practices of autocratic rulers who preceded him, as Dinomenids and Dionysius the Elder. Through the literary, archaeological and numismatic sources, this article assesses the importance and the scope of the Timoleon’s settlement policies in Syracuse and elsewhere on the island.
