Herodotus, The Histories (ed. A. D. Godley), Book 9, chapter 43 (search)
Now for this prophecy, which Mardonius said was spoken of the Persians, I know it to have been made concerning not them but the Illyrians and the army of the Enchelees.Referring to a legendary expedition of these northwestern tribes, directed against Hellas and Delphi in particular. There is, however, a prophecy made by Bacis concerning this battle: By Thermodon's stream and the grass-grown banks of Asopus, Will be a gathering of Greeks for fight and the ring of the barbarian's war-cry; Many a Median archer, by death untimely overtaken will fall There in the battle when the day of his doom is upon him. I know that these verses and others very similar to them from Musaeus referred to the Persians. As for the river Thermodon, it flows between Tanagra and Glisas.A little to the northwest of Thebes.
