en-wikipedia-org-9340		Artemisia I of Caria - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	5675	643	80	480 BC) was a queen of the ancient Greek city-state of Halicarnassus and of the nearby islands of Kos, Nisyros and Kalymnos,[2] within the Achaemenid satrapy of Caria, in about 480 BC.[2] She was of Carian-Greek ethnicity by her father Lygdamis I, and half-Cretan by her mother.[3] She fought as an ally of Xerxes I, King of Persia against the independent Greek city states during the second Persian invasion of Greece.[4] She personally commanded her contribution of five ships at the naval battle of Artemisium[5] and in the naval Battle of Salamis in 480 BC. Artemisia was the only one of Xerxes' naval commanders to advise against the action, then went on to earn her king's praise for her leadership in action during his fleet's defeat by the Greeks at the Battle of Salamis (September, 480 BC).	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-9340.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-9340.txt
