Dromichetes was one of the "small" kings in the actualy Dobrudgea with
Moldavia. He did not beated up the army of Aleander the Great, but he
beated up the army of Macedonians in the time of Lisymachos .
Egijus, it ought one read the sources about these times.

First testimony we have about a kingdoom in the North of Danube is the
one of Ptolemeus ( the future king of Egypt). He was one general of
Alexander the Great and he was with Alexander as this one entered the
North of Danube for the first time; this happened in 335 BC. The version
of Ptolemeus is kept in two later testimonies, Strabon and Arrian.The
version of Arrian is most complete, the Strabo one is some shorter.
The Getic kings who have been contemporain with Philip ( the father of
Alexander) and with Alexander have been Ateas and Kotelas. (342 BC and
338 BC)

The episode with Dromichete is later in 292 BC;
