The time has come to get beack to a character of a key character of Neapolis - The Siren's Recall: that Nymphius who is mentioned en-passant by Livy about Neapolis' siege as a “princeps civitatis” in Ab Urbe Condita, VIII, 25.
There will be a time to show the mentioned excerpt. This post will rather introduce a Plutarch excerpt where one Nypsios, neapolitan, an expert man-at-arms, appers. You might believe that the latter character has nothing to do with the former, apart from an apparent similarity in their names and the fact of being both from Neapolis.
