Nicostratus
10. Praetor of the Achaean league in B. C. 197. He was present at the meeting held at Mycenae. at the invitation of Nabis, at which Flaminius and Attals were also present. On the part of the Achaeans he entered into a truce for four months with Nabis. (Liv. 32.39, 40.) Later in the same year, being at Sicyon with a body of troops, by a skilfully devised stratagem he inflicted a severe defeat on the forces of Philip, stationed at Corinth under the command of Androsthenes [ANDROSTHENES], while they were ravaging the lands o Pellene, Sicyon, and Phlius. (Liv. 33.14, 15.)
