Abstract

The article presents a new look on the periodization of the reign of Philip II of Macedon. It is traditionally believed that the reign of this basileus is divided into two periods: before the Battle of Chaeronea in 338 BC and after it. The authors believe that 359-346 BC should be considered the first stage. It was during this period that economic and military reforms were carried out, the rise and strengthening of the Macedonian state took place. In addition, the foundations were laid for the establishment of Macedonian influence in Greece.
