Note 1342 — Chapter IX · Sicyon, Megara, Miletus, Ephesus, Leontini, Agrigentum, Cumae
Reading edition
On the relationships between Megara and Miletus at this period practically nothing is known. They appear to have been friendly, Meyer, G. d. A. II. p. 676 (but cp. Cauer, Part. u. Polit. in Megara u. Athen, pp. 14 f.). Corinth on the other hand appears to have been friendly to Samos the rival of Miletus, and we hear of an early collision between Corinth and Megara (Meyer, G. d. A. II. p. 449). It is therefore not unlikely that the great wool trade of Miletus with the far West passed through Megara rather than through the rival isthmus state of Corinth.
