And first, dividing the city into three parts, he gave a share in the government to his brothers Pantagnotus and Syloson; but presently he put one of them to death, banished the younger, Syloson, and so made himself lord of all Nisos Samos [26.8,37.75] (island), Samos, Aegean Islands, Greece, Europe Samos; then he made a treaty with Amasis king of Egypt [30,27] (nation), Africa Egypt, sending to him and receiving from him gifts.
