## About Herodotus

Herodotus, born in the Greek city of Halicarnassus when it was under Persian control in the 5th century BC, was a historian and geographer. He later became a citizen of Thurii in what is now Calabria, Italy. He authored the Histories, which records the Greco‑Persian Wars and other topics such as the rise of the Achaemenid dynasty of Cyrus. The Roman orator Cicero called him “The Father of History.”

The work was successfully completed, but a subsequent storm of great violence smashed it up and carried everything away. Xerxes was very angry when he [35] learned of the disaster, and gave orders that the Hellespont should receive three hundred lashes and have a pair of fetters thrown into it. I have heard before now that he also sent people to brand it with hot irons. He certainly instructed the men with the whips to utter, as they wielded them, the barbarous and presumptuous words: ‘You salt and bitter stream, your master lays this punishment upon you for injuring him, who never injured you. But Xerxes the King will cross you, with or without your permission. No man sacrifices to you, and you deserve the neglect by your acid and muddy waters.’ In addition to punishing the Hellespont Xerxes gave orders that the men responsible for building the bridges should have their heads cut off.17 The men who received these invidious orders duly carried them [36] out, and other engineers completed the work.”",
