After the fight at sea for Miletus [27.3,37.5] (Perseus) Miletus, the Phoenicians at the Persians' bidding brought Aeaces son of Syloson back to Nisos Samos [26.8,37.75] (island), Samos, Aegean Islands, Greece, Europe Samos, for the high worth of his service to them and for his great achievements. Because of the desertion of their ships in the sea-fight, the Samians were the only rebel people whose city and temples were not burnt.

After Miletus [27.3,37.5] (Perseus) Miletus was captured, the Persians at once gained possession of Caria [28,37.5] (region (general)), Turkey, Asia Caria. Some of the towns submitted voluntarily; others were brought over by force.
