HISTORY OF CARIA. 47
subject to him. These would probably be the
islands nearest to Caria,—Calyrnna, Leros, Msyros,
and Cos. The revolution in this latter island, by
which several smaller towns were incorporated in a
common capital, which took place B.C. 366, was pro-
bably brought about by the influence of Mausolus.8
Prom a passage in the anonymous treatise on
(Economics, attributed to Aristotle, we learn that
Lycia paid tribute to Mausolus, and was ruled by
his deputy Condalus.11
In B.C. 357 the Athenian confederacy, which
had been established B.C. 378, was materially
weakened by the defection of four important mari-
time states—Byzantium, Chios, Cos, and Rhodes.
These four states joined in a league against Athens,
of which Mausolus is said to have been the prin-
cipal instigator, and in which he took an active
part. The contest which this league carried on
with Athens is called the Social "War. The united
forces of the four revolted states, aided by a
reinforcement from Mausolus, assembled at Chios,
and there sustained a combined attack by sea
and land, in which the Athenians were completely
repulsed, and Chabrias, the commander of their
fleet, killed.1 This war terminated B.C. 355 with a
peace, in which the independence of the members
of the league was acknowledged by Athens.
