Where it is used

Thucydides, History of the Peloponnesian War 2.17.3: κατεσκευάσαντο δὲ καὶ ἐν τοῖς πύργοις τῶν τειχῶν πολλοὶ καὶ ὡς ἕκαστός που ἐδύνατο· οὐ γὰρ ἐχώρησε ξυνελθόντας αὐτοὺς ἡ πόλις, ἀλλ’ ὕστερον δὴ τά τε μακρὰ τείχη ᾤκησαν κατανειμάμενοι καὶ τοῦ Πειραιῶς τὰ πολλά.

Dionysius of Halicarnassus, Antiquitates Romanae 3.59.2: οὐ μὴν ἐχώρησέ γε αὐτοῖς ἡ πεῖρα κατὰ νοῦν θᾶττον ἐπιφανείσης τῆς Ῥωμαίων στρατιᾶς, οὐδʼ ἐξεγένετο παρʼ οὐδεμιᾶς τῶν πόλεων κοινὴν ἀποσταλῆναι τοῖς Τυρρηνοῖς συμμαχίαν, ἀλλʼ ἐθελονταί τινες ἐπεκούρησαν αὐτοῖς ὀλίγοι μισθοῖς μεγάλοις ὑπαχθέντες.
