Now the cities which transferred their<pb n="429" />allegiance to him in the first instance were <a class="linkToPlace" target="_blank" href="/place?placename=Cyme&groupId=510&placeId=960">Cyme</a>, <a class="linkToPlace" target="_blank" href="/place?placename=Smyrna&groupId=981&placeId=1733">Smyrna</a>, and <a class="linkToPlace" target="_blank" href="/place?placename=Phocaea&groupId=891&placeId=1603">Phocaea</a>; after them <a class="linkToPlace" target="_blank" href="/place?placename=Aegae&groupId=285&placeId=560">Aegae</a> and Temnus submitted, in terror at his approach; and thereupon he was waited upon by ambassadors from Teos and Colophon with offers to surrender themselves and their cities. He received them also upon the same terms as they had enjoyed before, taking hostages; but he treated the ambassadors from <a class="linkToPlace" target="_blank" href="/place?placename=Smyrna&groupId=981&placeId=1733">Smyrna</a> with special kindness, because they had been the most constant in their loyalty of all. Continuing his march without interruption, he crossed the Lycus and arrived at the hamlets of <a class="linkToPlace" target="_blank" href="/place?placename=Mysia&groupId=782&placeId=1417">Mysia</a>, and thence came to Carseae. Overawing the inhabitants of this town, as well as the garrison of the Two Walls, he got them surrendered to him by Themistocles, who had been, as it happened, left by Achaeus in command of this district. Starting thence, and wasting the plain of Apia, he crossed Mount Pelecas and encamped near the river Megistus.
