herodotus
shortly before the persian war, paros seems to have been a dependency of naxos. in the first greco-persian war (490 bc), paros sided with the persians and sent a trireme to marathon to support them. in retaliation, the capital was besieged by an athenian fleet under miltiades, who demanded a fine of 100 talents. but the town offered a vigorous resistance, and the athenians were obliged to sail away after a siege of 26 days, during which they had wasted the island. it was at a temple of demeter thesmophoros in paros that miltiades received the wound from which he died. by means of an inscription, ross was able to identify the site of the temple; it lies, as herodotus suggests, on a low hill beyond the boundary of the town.
