Histories

There king Darius settled the Eretrians, and they dwelt in that place until my time, keeping their ancient language. Such was the fate of the Eretrians.

After the full moon two thousand Lacedaemonians came to Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens, making such great haste to reach it that they were in Attica [23.5,38.83] (department), Central Greece and Euboea, Greece, Europe Attica on the third day after leaving Sparta [22.4417,37.0667] (Perseus) Sparta. Although they came too late for the battle, they desired to see the Medes, so they went to Marathon and saw them. Then they departed again, praising the Athenians and their achievement.
