The '''Battle of Chaeronea''' was fought between [[Philip of Macedon]] and an army from the [[Greek]] [[city states]] of [[Athens]] and [[Thebes]]. Philip's 32,000 men defeated the allied force of 50,000, leaving 20,000 dead. The losses of Philip are unknown but must have been severe. This ended the [[Fourth Sacred War]]. Philip was the unquested master of Greece. His son [[Alexander the Great|Alexander]] fought in the battle as a commander of cavalry.
