Tissaphernes, upon hearing of this act of the Peloponnesians in
addition to what had occurred at Miletus and Cnidus, where his
garrisons had been also expelled, now saw that the breach between them

had done, determined to rejoin them in the Hellespont, in order to
complain of the events at Antandros and excuse himself as best he
could in the matter of the Phoenician fleet and of the other charges
against him. Accordingly he went first to Ephesus and offered
sacrifice to Artemis....
