	Delian League - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Carystus, a city on the southern tip of Euboea, was forced to join the League by military actions of the Athenians.
		The justification for this was that Carystus was enjoying the advantages of the League (protection from pirates and the Persians) without taking on any of the responsibilities.
		Naxos, a member of the Delian League, attempted to secede, and was enslaved; Naxos is believed to have been forced to tear down her walls, lost her fleet, and her vote in the League.

		This is the first known case of compulsion being used to join the DL and it seemed to have approval.
		Carystus was unpopular because of its medizing, and it was considered unfair that she should benefit from DL efforts and protection from piracy unless she became a member.

		These included a woman from Carystus with an infant at her breast, whom Branchus took as his wife, adopting the child as his own son.

		And Antigonus, of Carystus, says in his Lives, that his father had been the chief man of the city, and had kept chariots for the Olympic games.
		He also asserts that Polemo was prosecuted by his wife, on the charge of ill-treatment, because he indulged in illicit pleasures, and despised her.

	From The Delian League To The Athenian Empire
		Further evidence of expansionistic Athenian policy can be seen in the case of Carystus, the one city in Euboea which declined membership of the Delian League.
		At the time of the Carystian incident the Persians still controlled these regions, and thus Carystus could become a stepping stone to mainland Greece and encourage other Euboean cities to leave the league.
		After the incidents at Carystus, Naxos and Thasos, a new type of member emerged: a subject state.

		Besides this there is another story told, which I do not at all believe.

		One may guess which story is true, from the fact that the deputies of the Greeks, the Pylagorae, who must have had the best means of ascertaining the truth, did not offer the reward for the heads of Onetas and Corydallus, but for that of Ephialtes of Trachis.
