This is the display of the inquiry of Herodotus of Bodrum [27.466,37.5] (inhabited place), Mugla Ili, Ege kiyilari,
 Turkey, Asia Halicarnassus , so that things done by man not be forgotten in time, and that great
 and marvelous deeds, some displayed by the Hellenes , some by the barbarians, not lose their glory, including
 among others what was the cause of their waging war on each other. The Persian learned men
 say that the Phoenicians were the cause of the
 dispute. These (they say) came to our seas from the sea which is called
 Red, Not the modern Red Sea [42,15] (sea) Red Sea , but the Persian Gulf
 [53.83,25.583] (gulf), Asia Persian Gulf and adjacent waters. and having settled in the country
 which they still occupy, at once began to make long voyages. Among other
 places to which they carried Egyptian and Assyrian merchandise, they came to Argos [22.7333,37.6417] (Perseus) Argos , which was at that time preeminent in every way among the people of what is
 now called Greece [22,39]
 (nation), Europe Hellas . The Phoenicians came to Argos [22.7333,37.6417] (Perseus) Argos , and set out their cargo. On the fifth or sixth day after their arrival, when their wares were almost
 all sold, many women came to the shore and among them especially the
 daughter of the king, whose name was Io (according
 to Persians and Greeks 
 alike), the daughter of Inachus . As these stood about the stern of the ship bargaining for the wares they
 liked, the Phoenicians incited one another to set
 upon them. Most of the women escaped: Io and others
 were seized and thrown into the ship, which then sailed away for Egypt [30,27] (nation), Africa Egypt .
