Passage 7.1.9
Ἴωνας δὲ ἀφικομένους ἐς τὴν Ἀττικὴν Ἀθηναῖοι καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς αὐτῶν Μέλανθος Ἀνδροπόμπου συνοίκους ἐξεδέξαντο Ἴωνός τε δὴ ἕνεκα καὶ ἔργων ἃ ἔπραξε πολεμαρχῶν Ἀθηναίοις· λέγεται δὲ ὡς ἐν ὑπονοίᾳ ποιούμενοι τοὺς Δωριέας οἱ Ἀθηναῖοι, μὴ οὐδὲ αὐτῶν ἐθέλωσιν ἀπέχεσθαι, ἰσχύος μᾶλλον οἰκείας ἕνεκα ἢ εὐνοίᾳ τῇ ἐς τοὺς Ἴωνας συνοίκους σφᾶς ἐδέξαντο.
When the Ionians came into Attica, the Athenians and their king Melanthus, son of Andropompus, received them as fellow-inhabitants, both for the sake of Ion himself and in recognition of deeds he had performed as leader of the Athenians in war. It is said, however, that the Athenians acted more from consideration of their own strength than from goodwill toward their Ionian fellow-inhabitants, suspecting that the Dorians might be unwilling to refrain even from attacking them.
