Excerpt from The Historical Library of Diodorus the Sicilian, in Fifteen Books, Vol. 2 of 2: To Which Are Added the Fragments of Diodorus and Those Published by H. Valesius, I. Rhodomannus, and F. Ursinus And, in the first place, with his privateers (of which he had many) he intercepted the enemy's transport-ships, laden with victuals and provisions, and sunk some, disabled others, and took several besides; so that there began to be great scarcity and want of corn in the Per sian camp, in regard the merchants durst not sail to Cyprus, where that great army and body of men were got together. And this oc casioned a great mutiny in the army; for the mercenaries, for want of bread, knocked some of their officers on the head, and filled the camp with mutiny and tumult to such a degree, that the Persian colonels, and admiral of the fleet, called Gaos, could scarcely quell it. The fleet, therefore, was sent to Cilicia for provisions, which returned with a great quantity of corn from thence, by which the camp was ever after plentifully supplied. But, as to Evagoras, Acoris sent to him, out of Egypt, money, corn, and all other things necessary, suffi cient for his occasions.
