Iatragoras, who had been sent for this very purpose, craftily seized Oliatus of Mylasa [27.8,37.3167] (Perseus)Mylasa son of Ibanollis; Histiaeus of Termera [27.3167,37] (Perseus)Termera son of Tymnes; Coes son of Erxandrus, to whom Darius gave Mytilene [26.55,39.1] (Perseus) Mytilene; Aristagoras of Kyme [24.1167,38.6333] (Perseus)Cyme, son of Heraclides; and many others besides. Then Aristagoras revolted openly, devising all he could to harm Darius.

First he made pretence of giving up his tyranny and gave Miletus [27.3,37.5] (Perseus) Miletus equality of government so that the Milesians might readily join in his revolt. Then he proceeded to do the same things in the rest of Ionia (region (general)), Europe Ionia. Some of the tyrants he banished, and as for those tyrants whom he had taken out of the ships that sailed with him against +Nisos Naxos [25.583,32.33] (island), Cyclades, Aegean Islands, Greece, Europe Naxos, he handed them each over to their respective cities, which he wished to please.
