Battle of Mycale - Battle of Mycale

Japanese: ミュカレの戦 - ミュカレのたたかい
Battle of Mycale - Battle of Mycale
A battle in 479 BC during the Second Persian War. According to ancient legend, it was fought on the same day as the Battle of Plataea. At the Andros Conference immediately following the Battle of Salamis, the Greek naval forces announced a proactive plan to wage war on Persian territory in the future. They set out in the spring of 479 BC, but remained on the island of Delos for a long time, hesitant to move eastward. Then, a representative of the Persian resistance faction on the island of Samos appeared and requested the Greek fleet to be deployed, so the Greeks set out in response.

第2回ペルシア戦争における前479年の合戦。古代の伝承では,プラタイアイの戦と同じ日に戦われたという。サラミスの海戦直後のアンドロス島会議ではギリシア連合の海上軍は,今後はペルシア帝国領において戦いを遂行するという積極策を打ち出し,前479年の春とともに出動したもののデロス島に長期間とどまり,東進をためらっていた。そこへサモス島のペルシア抗戦派の代表がギリシア船隊の出動を要請して現れたため,これに応えての出撃となった。
