This was soon afterwards followed by the
revolt of Euboea from Athens.
Pericles had already crossed over with an army of Athenians to the island,
when news was brought to him that Megara had revolted, that the
onians, and Epidaurians
into the town before they revolted.
Meanwhile Pericles brought his army back in all haste from Euboea.
After this the Peloponnesians marched into Attica as far as Eleusis and
Thrius, ravaging the country under the c anax, the son
of Pausanias, and without advancing further returned home.
The Athenians then crossed over again to Euboea under the command of
Pericles, and subdued the whole of the island: all but Histiaea was settled
by convention; th

Not long after their return from Euboea, they
made a truce with the Lacedaemonians and their allies for thirty years,
giving up the posts which they occupied in Peloponnese, Nisaea Pegae,
Troezen, and Achaia.
In the sixth year of the truce, war broke out between the Samians and
Milesians about Priene.
Worsted in the war, the Milesians came to Athens with loud complaints
against the Samians.
In this they were joined by certain private persons from Samos itself, who
wished to revolutionize the government.
Accordingly the Athenians sailed to Samos with forty ships and set up a
democracy; took hostages from the Samians, fifty boys and as many men, lodged them in

The thirty years' truce which was entered
into after the conquest of Euboea lasted fourteen years.
In the fifteenth, in the forty-eighth year of the priestess-ship of Chrysis
at Argos, in the Ephorate of Aenesias at Sparta, in the last month but two
of the Archonship of Pythodorus at Athens, and six months after the battle
of Potidaea, just at the beginning of spring, a Theban force a little over
three hundred strong, under the command of their Boeotarchs, Pythangelus,
son of Phyleides, and Diemporus, son of Onetorides, about the first watch of
the night, made an armed entry into Plataea, a town of Boeotia in alliance
with Athens.
The gates were opened to them by a Plataean called Naucleides, who, with

The Athenians listened to his advice, and
began to carry in their wives and children from the country, and all their
household furniture, even to the woodwork of their houses which they took
down.
Their sheep and cattle they sent over to Euboea and the adjacent islands.
But they found it hard to move, as most of them had been always used to
live in the country.

About the same time the Athenians sent thirty
ships to cruise round Locris and also to guard Euboea; Cleopompus, son of Clinias, being in command.
Making descents from the fleet he ravaged certain places on the sea-coast,
and captured Thronium and took hostages from it.
He also defeated at Alope the Locrians that had assembled to resist him.

Atalanta also, the desert island off the Opuntian coast, was towards the
end of this summer converted into a fortified post by the Athenians, in
order to prevent privateers issuing from Opus and the rest of Locris and
plundering Euboea.
Such were the events of this summer after the return of the Peloponnesians
from Attica.

After ravaging the plain the Peloponnesians
advanced into the Paralian region as far as Laurium, where the Athenian
silver mines are, and first laid waste the side looking towards Peloponnese,
next that which faces Euboea and Andros.
But Pericles, who was still general, held the same opinion as in the former
invasion, and would not let the Athenians march out against them.
