Image EPMA 13330 Themistocle decree 2.JPG thumb right Decree of Themistocles, National Archaeological Museum of Athens , 13330 The Decree of Themistocles is an ancient Greek inscription discussing Greek strategy in the Greco Persian Wars , purported to have been issued by the Athens Athenian assembly under the guidance of Themistocles . Since the publication of its contents in 1960, the authenticity of the decree has been the subject of much academic debate.

Percote is mentioned a few times in Greek mythology , where it plays a very minor role each time. It was said to be the home of a notable seer named Merops , also its ruler. Merops was the father of Arisbe the first wife of King Priam , and subsequently wife of King Hyrtacus , Cleite wife of King Cyzicus , and two sons named Amphius and Adrastus who fought during the Trojan War . As an ally of Troy, Percote sent a contingent to help King Priam during the Trojan War though this contingent was led not by Merops s sons, but by Asius , son of Hyrtacus , according to Homer s Iliad , one native from Percote was wounded in the Trojan War by Antilochus , two natives from Percote were killed in the Trojan War by Diomedes and Odysseus Ullysses . ref Bibliotheca classica or, A classical dictionary, by John Dymock and Thomas Dymock, 1833. ref The Meropidae Amphius and Adrastus instead lead a contingent from nearby Adrastea . A nephew of Priam, named Melanippus , son of Hicetaon , herded cattle oxen at Percote, according to Homer. According to Phanias of Eresus , Artaxerxes I of Persia had given to Themistocles the city of Percote with bedding for his house. ref http plutarch.classicauthors.net PlutarchsLives PlutarchsLives3.html Themistocles, Part II , by Plutarch ref see Percale Percote was no longer in existence during the time of Strabo , and in his Geography he mentions that the exact location of Percote on the Hellespont shore is unknown. Strabo also claims that Percote was originally called Percope, and that it was part of the Troad . The inhabitants of Percote and neighboring places like Arisbe and Adrastea were apparently neither Trojan or Dardanian, and the origins of the Meropidae and Hyrtacidae are unclear.
