The Battle of Lade Mislocated[edit]

The Battle of Lade is slightly misplaced on the map, I believe. The current location is on the island of Tragia, not on the island of Lade.

The island of Lade was much closer to Miletus, but the map used as the base of the description of Greco-Persian wars is a recent one and, thus, it doesn't show the island of Lade at all which has by modern times disappeared completely due to silting. See, for example, this map.
