Miltiades did not await their attack and fled from the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese, until the Scythians departed and the Dolonci brought him back again. All this had happened three years before the matters that now engaged him.

But now, learning that the Phoenicians were in +Tenedos [26.05,39.8167] (Perseus) Tenedos, he sailed away to Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens with five triremes loaded with the possessions that he had nearby. He set out from Kardia [26.7333,40.5833] (Perseus)Cardia and crossed the Black Bay, and as he was sailing along the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese the Phoenicians fell upon him with their ships.
