Question 38

Which statement correctly identifies the Persian expedition defeated at Marathon?

  1. Darius I sent it, and it was defeated in 490 BCEBonne réponse
  2. Xerxes I sent it, and it won in 480 BCE
  3. Darius III led it to victory in 333 BCE
  4. Cyrus sent it after the Battle of Salamis

Explication

Darius I sent the force defeated at Marathon in 490 BCE during the first mainland invasion. Xerxes led the later invasion of 480 BCE, so assigning him the Marathon expedition confuses the two campaigns.
