Stesagoras, the elder of Cimon's sons, was then being brought up with his uncle Miltiades in the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese. The younger was with Cimon at Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens, and he took the name Miltiades from Miltiades the founder of the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese.

It was this Miltiades who was now the Athenian general, after coming from the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese and escaping a two-fold death. The Phoenicians pursued him as far as Imbros, considering it of great importance to catch him and bring him to the king.

He escaped from them, but when he reached his own country and thought he was safe, then his enemies met him. They brought him to court and prosecuted him for tyranny in the Gelibolu Yarimadasi (peninsula), Canakkale, Marmara, Turkey, AsiaChersonese, but he was acquitted and appointed Athenian general, chosen by the people.
