Abstract
This article analyzes the chronology of the Third Diadoch War (315–311 b.c.), mainly on the basis of Diodorus' narrative in Book 19, and proposes a reconstruction combining the high and the low chronology: high chronology until mid 313, neither of them in the period mid 313–spring 312, and low chronology for the period summer 312–winter 312/1.
