Aeschylus fought in the battle of Marathon, not the battle of Salamis (which came ten years later).194.230.254.26 (talk) 20:00, 18 June 2010 (UTC)Rob Landau[reply]

According to our article Aeschylus, he fought at both battles. Paul August 21:40, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Could'nt word paean be derived from some Indo European root. In many slavic languages word pojati and pevati means to chant or to sing. As and adjective when priest sang funerary rite to a deceased man it is said that man was "opojan"(opoian). It sounds very similar to word paean. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LazarSKG92 (talkcontribs) 09:55, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
