Histories

Reaching the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese, Miltiades kept himself within his house, professing thus to honor the memory of his brother Stesagoras. When the people of the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese learned this, their ruling men gathered together from all the cities on every side, and came together in a group to show fellow-feeling with his mourning; but he put them in bonds. So Miltiades made himself master of the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese; there he maintained a guard of five hundred men, and married Hegesipyle the daughter of Olorus, king of Thrace (region (general)), EuropeThrace.

But not long after this Miltiades son of Cimon had come to the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese, greater difficulties than the present afflictions overtook him. He had been driven from the country three years before this[*](In 493. tri/tw| me\n ga/r, k.t.l. explains how it was that Miltiades had been till now absent from the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese.) by the Scythians. The nomadic Scythians, provoked by Darius, gathered themselves together and rode as far as the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese.
