[edit] Barliris could be Bardyllis

Tertulian on baraliris Tertullian is the only one mentioning this character.And he quotes Callisthenes.

"and I further learn from Callisthenes that it was from the indication of a dream that Baraliris the Illyrian stretched his dominion from the Molossi to the frontiers of Macedon."

He probably is Bardyllis that attacked epirus and macedon after Dionysius I of Syracuse proded and aided him as to change the political situation in Greece.There is no baraliris charakter anywhere else and the acts described in Tertullian refer to the assault by Bardyllis.Megistias (talk) 22:27, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

The events are described in Diodorus Siculus book 15.map of the attack.Megistias (talk) 22:31, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
