  • Following a series of Syracusan Victory in the first year of the war, cultivating in the Syracusan Annexation of Himera, Athens launched a campaign to relieve their ally. After lack of progress, the Athenian General was replaced by the famour Greek soldier, Conon the Great. Conon denied any lack of discipline and marched his troops through the coldest winter in years, which had initially forced the Athenians to a halt. After an Athenian victory against a smaller Syracusan force, the Athenian Assembly demanded that Conon continue his advance, and relieve Himera which had fallen several months earlier. However, by April, Alextrus, the Syracusan General, became aware of the nearing enemy army and set up defensive positions in a hilly, region several miles south west of Himera. When the Athenians apporahced, many were doubtfull they could defeat the complicated system of ditches, towers, and fortifications that Alextrus had briefly constructed.
