The siege of Lamia occurred in 322 BC between the Macedonians led by Antipater and a coalition of armies mostly from central Greece led by Leosthenes. After Antipater was defeated at the Battle of Thermopylae he shut himself in the city of Lamia. Leosthenes approached the city and with his army fortified a camp, dug up a deep ditch and constructed a palisade. Initially, Leosthenes would draw up his forces, and approach the city and directly challenge the Macedonians to battle. The Macedonians denied this challenge, prompting Leosthenes to launch daily attacks on the walls with his soldiers.

  • Le siège de Lamia se déroule durant la guerre lamiaque (qui tire son nom de cette cité de Phthiotide) en 323-322 av. J.-C. et oppose une coalition grecque, dirigée par Athènes, aux forces macédoniennes d'Antipater, le régent de Macédoine. Les Macédoniens finissent par l'emporter après l'arrivée de renforts conduits par Léonnatos. Le commandant athénien, Léosthène, trouve la mort durant le siège. (fr)
  • Осада Ламии — осада союзными греческими войсками города Ламия, в котором находилась македонская армия под командованием Антипатра, в ходе Ламийской войны (323—322 до н. э.). Затяжная осада стала поворотным моментом этой войны, в результате чего греки в значительной степени утратили наступательные порывы, а македоняне смогли привести подкрепления из Малой Азии. (ru)

Initially, Leosthenes would draw up his forces, and approach the city and directly challenge the Macedonians to battle. The Macedonians denied this challenge, prompting Leosthenes to launch daily attacks on the walls with his soldiers. The Macedonians defended themselves from the daily attacks and were able to halt the Greeks' attacks, because of the abundance of missiles and protection from the walls. Since Leosthenes was unable to storm the city, he shut off all supplies entering the city, believing this would reduce the army because of hunger. He also built a wall and dug a deep, wide ditch, cutting off all escape routes for the Macedonians. The Aetolians all returned to Aetolia, due to national business Leosthenes agreed, Antipater and his men exhausted due to the anticipation of famine. Antipater initiated an attack on the men digging the moat and a struggle occurred, Leosthenes in an attempt to aid his men, was struck in the head by a stone, he fainted and was dragged to camp and in three days' time he died.
