Before the Eretrians were taken captive, king Darius had been terribly angry with them for doing him unprovoked wrong; but when he saw them brought before him and subject to him, he did them no harm, but settled them in a domain of his own called Ardericca in the Cissian land; this place is two hundred and ten stadia distant from Shush [48.333,32.2] (inhabited place), Khuzestan, Iran, AsiaSusa, and forty from the well that is of three kinds.
