| Thasos (572 words) |
| In 411 BC, at the time of the oligarchical revolution at Athens, Thasos again revolted from Athens and received a Lacedaemonian governor; but in 407 BC the partisans of Lacedaemon were expelled, and the Athenians under Thrasybulus were admitted. |
| After the battle of Aegospotami (405 BC), Thasos again fell into the hands of the Lacedaemonians under Lysander who formed a decarchy there; but the Athenians must have recovered it, for it formed one of the subjects of dispute between them and Philip II of Macedonia. |
| After a period of Latin occupation, it was captured by the Turks in 1462; it was given by the Sultan Mahmud II[?] to Mehemet Ali[?] of Egypt, and still remains the property of the khedive. |
