Q: Fourteen years after this battle, Tithraustes, the illegitimate son of the commander of the losing side, would fight a similar type of battle at the Eurymedon River. Prior to this battle, one side had dug a channel across the Isthmus of Actium to avoid the peaks of Mt. Athos, and a side engagement following this conflict involved the forces of Aristides dispatching a garrison at Psyttaleia. The victors at this battle had earlier suffered a defeat at Artemisium, and following this battle, the losers suffered a defeat at Mychale and another at Plataea. The success of the winning side in this battle depended on a false message sent to the loser intimating that the winning commander was ready to betray his side. For ten points, identify this 480 B.C.E. naval battle, a victory for Themistocles over the forces of Xerxes.
