Crap, 113-116. SPEECH OF ARTAYCTES TO XERXES, 461 115. Now, as Sestos was the strongest fortress in all that region,’ the rumour had no sooner gone forth that the Greeks were arrived at the Hellespont, than great numbers flocked thither from all towns in the neighbourhood. Among the rest there came a certain (Hobazus, a Persian, from the city of Cardia," where he had laid up the shore-cables which had been used in the construction of the bridges. The town was guarded by its own ZAolian inhabitants! but contained also some Persians, and a great multitude of their allies. 116. The whole district was under the rule of Artayctes, one of the King’s satraps; who was a Persian, but a wicked and cruel man. At the time when Xerxes was marching against Athens, he had craftily possessed himself of the treasures belonging to Protesilaiis, the son of Iphiclus,® which were at Elats in the Chersonese. For at this place is the tomb of Protesilaiis, surrounded by a sacred precinct; and here there was great store of wealth, vases of gold and silver, works in a brass, garments, and other offerings, all which Artayctes ege fo Sestos. made his prey, having got the King’s consent by thus cun- - ningly addressing him— ndapendence, Sues ““ Master, there is in this region the house of a Greek, who, y dificult matter; of — _ ft lost. very many I Athenians to open the strait as soon Sestos.
