I see no need to mention any of the other captains except Artemisia. I find it a great marvel that a woman went on the expedition against Greece [22,39] (nation), EuropeHellas: after her husband died, she took over his tyranny, though she had a young son, and followed the army from youthful spirits and manliness, under no compulsion.

Artemisia was her name, and she was the daughter of Lygdamis; on her fathers' side she was of Halicarnassian lineage, and on her mothers' Cretan. She was the leader of the men of Bodrum [27.466,37.5] (inhabited place), Mugla Ili, Ege kiyilari, Turkey, Asia Halicarnassus and Kos City [27.3,36.8917] (Perseus)Cos and Nisyrus and Calydnos, and provided five ships.

Her ships were reputed to be the best in the whole fleet after the ships of +Sidon [35.366,33.55] (inhabited place), Al-Janub, Lebanon, Asia Sidon, and she gave the king the best advice of all his allies. The cities that I said she was the leader of are all of Dorian stock, as I can show, since the Halicarnassians are from Troizen [23.375,37.5] (Perseus)Troezen, and the rest are from Epidauros [23.0917,37.6] (Perseus)Epidaurus.
