Then the Samians took from the men of Hermione , instead of money, the island Hydrea which is near to the Peloponnesus , and gave it to men of Troezen for safekeeping; they themselves settled at Cydonia in Crete , though their voyage had been made with no such intent, but rather to drive Zacynthians out of the island. Here they stayed and prospered for five years; indeed, the temples now at Cydonia and the shrine of Dictyna are the Samians' work; but in the sixth year Aeginetans and Cretans came and defeated them in a sea-fight and made slaves of them; moreover they cut off the ships' prows, that were shaped like boars' heads, and dedicated them in the temple of Athena in Aegina . The Aeginetans did this out of a grudge against the Samians; for previously the Samians, in the days when Amphicrates was king of Samos , sailing in force against Aegina , had hurt the Aeginetans and been hurt by them. This was the cause.
