Histories

Now when the Phoenician fleet came sailing against them, the Ionians put out to sea against them with their ships in column. When they drew near and met each other in battle, which of the Ionians were brave men or cowards then in that sea-fight I cannot exactly say; for they all blame each other.

The Samians are said, according to their agreement with Aeaces, to have raised their sails and gone off to +Nisos Samos [26.8,37.75] (island), Samos, Aegean Islands, Greece, Europe Samos, leaving their post, all except eleven ships.
