As for the barbarians at +Aphetae [23.1167,39.1167] (Perseus) Aphetae, when to their great comfort the day dawned, they kept their ships unmoved, being in their evil plight well content to do nothing for the moment. Now fifty-three Attic ships came to aid the Greeks,

who were encouraged both by the ships coming and by the news that the barbarians sailing round +Euboea [23.833,38.566] (island), Nomos Evvoias, Central Greece and Euboea, Greece, Europe Euboea had all perished in the recent storm. They waited then for the same hour as before, and fell upon certain Cilician ships when they put to sea. After destroying these when night fell, they sailed back to +Artemisium [23.2417,39.0083] (Perseus) Artemisium.
