Brasidas, perceiving that they were deserting
the parapet, and seeing what was going on, dashed forward with his troops,
and immediately took the fort, and put to the sword all whom he found in it.
In this way the place was evacuated by the Athenians, who went across in
their boats and ships to Pallene.
Now there is a temple of Athena in Lecythus, and Brasidas had proclaimed in
the moment of making the assault, that he would give thirty silver minae to
the man first on the wall.
Being now of opinion that the capture was scarcely due to human means, he
gave the thirty minae to the goddess for her temple, and razed and cleared
Lecythus, and made the whole of it consecrated ground.

In the days in which they were going
backwards and forwards to these conferences, Scione, a town in Pallene,
revolted from Athens, and went over to Brasidas.
The Scionaeans say that they are Pallenians from Peloponnese, and that
their first founders on their voyage from Troy were carried in to this spot
by the storm which the Ach His passage effected, he called a meeting of the Scionaeans and spoke to
the same effect as at Acanthus and Torone, adding that they merited the
utmost commendation in that, in spite of Pallene within the isthmus being
cut off by the Athenian occupation of Potidaea and of their own practically
insular position, they had of their own free will gone forward to meet their

Meanwhile Mende revolted, a town in Pallene
and a colony of the Eretrians, and was received without scruple by Brasidas,
in spite of its having evidently come over during the armistice, on account
of certain infringements of the truce alleged by him against the Athenians.
This audacity of Mende was partly caused by seeing Brasidas forward in the
matter and by the conclusions drawn from his refusal to betray Scione; and besides, the conspirators in Mende were few, and, as I have already
intimated, had carried on their practices too long not to fear detection for
themselves, and not to wish to force the inclination of the multitude.
This news made the Athenians more furious than ever, and they at once
prepared against b

On his return from Macedonia to Torone,
Brasidas found the Athenians already masters of Mende, and remained quiet
where he was, thinking it now out of his power to cross over into Pallene
and assist the Mendaeans, but he kept good watch over Torone.
For about the same time as the campaign in Lyncus, the Athenians sailed
upon the expedition which we left them preparing against Mende and Scione,
with fifty ships, ten of which were Chians, one thousand Athenian heavy
infantry and six hundred archers, one hundred Thracian mercenaries and some
targeteers drawn from their allies in the neighbourhood, under the command
of Nicias, son of Niceratus, and Nicostratus, son of Diitrephes.
