[Meaning] a land/territory [of that name].¹
And 12 cities of Ionia, which Neleus son of Kodros settled. They are Androklos' Ephesos,² Miletos, Myous, Priene, Kolophon, Teos, Lebedos, Erythrai, Phokaia, Klazomenai, Chios, [and] Samos.³ These Darius, as he marched against the Skythians, employed as guards upon the [river] Istros,⁴ but made eunuchs of the most well-bred of them and concubines of their daughters.⁵
