Histories

When the king's side was all in commotion, at that time Artemisia's ship was pursued by a ship of Attica [23.5,38.83] (department), Central Greece and Euboea, Greece, Europe Attica. She could not escape, for other allied ships were in front of her and hers was the nearest to the enemy. So she resolved to do something which did in fact benefit her: as she was pursued by the Attic ship, she charged and rammed an allied ship, with a Calyndian crew and Damasithymus himself, king of the Calyndians, aboard.
