Note 161 — Chapter IX · SALAMIS.
Reading edition
There is a curious triangular concord at this point in the history.
Diodorus says that the Egyptian contingent was sent to block the strait towards the Megarid (xi. 17).
Plutarch says 200 vessels were sent to close the passage round Salamis (Them. 12).
Herodotus mentions that the Egyptian contingent numbered 200 (vii. 89).
