Although founded by the Athenians in 437 BC, it would not stay under Atheninan control for long. Less than two decades later, the [[Sparta|Spartan]] general [[Brasidas]] conquered the city and took it under his control. In 422 BC, the Athenians attempted to re-capture Amphipolis, but Brasidas defeated them. A year later, in the Peace of Nicias, the Athenians would now once again have control over Amphipolis, but Amphipolis wanted to become an autonomous city-state and succeeded, thus throwing off the Athenian attempt to maintain control over it. By the fourth century BC, the Macedonians had acquired control over Amphipolis, and despite the attempts of the Athenians, they did not yield over the city to them, but instead established major defensive fortifications and walls to ensure their control. The rulers of Amphipolis would only change again in 168 BC, when the [[Roman Empire|Romans]] seized Amphipolis and turned it into a free city.
