Histories

Then they swore great oaths to each other, and sallying out fell fighting, all the men of Xanthos [29.35,36.3833] (Perseus)Xanthus.

Of the Xanthians who claim now to be Lycians the greater number, all except eighty households, are of foreign descent; these eighty families as it happened were away from the city at that time, and thus survived. So Harpagus gained Xanthos [29.35,36.3833] (Perseus)Xanthus, and Caunus [28.6333,36.8333] (Perseus)Caunus too in a somewhat similar manner, the Caunians following for the most part the example of the Lycians.

Harpagus, then, made havoc of lower Asia (continent)Asia; in the upper country, Cyrus himself vanquished every nation, leaving none untouched. Of the greater part of these I will say nothing, but will speak only of those which gave Cyrus the most trouble and are most worthy of being described.
