8.2 Of this Pindar seems to have been well aware when he said of the battle of Artemisium:— Where Athenians’ valiant sons set in radiance eternal Liberty’s corner-stone. Bergk, Frag. 77. For verily the foundation of victory is courage. Artemisium is a part of Euboea above Hestiaea,—a sea-beach stretching away to the north,—and just about opposite to it lies Olizon, in the territory once subject to Philoctetes. It has a small temple of Artemis surnamed Proseoea, which is surrounded by trees and enclosed by upright slabs of white marble. This stone, when you rub it with your hand, gives off the color and the odor of saffron.

8.3 On one of these slabs the following elegy was inscribed:— Nations of all sorts of men from Asia’s boundaries coming, Sons of the Athenians once, here on this arm of the sea, Whelmed in a battle of ships, and the host of the Medes was destroyed; These are the tokens thereof, built for the Maid Artemis. Bergk, Poet. Lyr. Graeci, iii.4 p. 480. And a place is pointed out on the shore, with sea sand all about it, which supplies from its depths a dark ashen powder, apparently the product of fire, and here they are thought to have burned their wrecks and dead bodies.
