1. Anne Mahoney, Creating an Infrastructure for Scholarly Publication On Line section 4
   When the on-line edition of the Sophocles book refers to Aeschylus, there will be a live link at the point of the citation, which the reader can follow to find the passage in Aeschylus. (5.51)

2. Anne Mahoney, Creating an Infrastructure for Scholarly Publication On Line section 4

(16.83)

3. A dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology (ed. William Smith) alphabetic letter C
   ) After another twelve years, Choerilus came into competition with Aeschylus, when the latter first exhibited (B. C. 499); and, since we know that Aeschylus did not carry off a prize till sixteen years afterwards, the prize of this contest must have been given either to Chocrilus or to Pratinas. (16.40)
