Of the islanders, the Aeginetans provided thirty ships. They had other manned ships, but they guarded their own land with these and fought at Salamis (island), Attica, Central Greece and Euboea, Greece, EuropeSalamis with the thirty most seaworthy. The Aeginetans are Dorians from Epidauros [23.0917,37.6] (Perseus)Epidaurus, and their island was formerly called Oenone.

After the Aeginetans came the Chalcidians with their twenty ships from +Artemisium [23.2417,39.0083] (Perseus) Artemisium, and the Eretrians with the same seven; these are Ionians. Next were the Ceans, Ionians from Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens, with the same ships as before.

The Naxians provided four ships. They had been sent by their fellow citizens to the Persians, like the rest of the islanders, but they disregarded their orders and came to the Hellenes at the urging of Democritus, an esteemed man among the townsmen and at that time captain of a trireme. The Naxians are Ionians descended from Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens.

The Styrians provided the same number of ships as at +Artemisium [23.2417,39.0083] (Perseus) Artemisium, and the Cythnians one trireme and a fifty-oared boat; these are both Dryopians. The Seriphians, Siphnians, and Melians also took part, since they were the only islanders who had not given earth and water to the barbarian.
