Apsinthians

The people who were the bitter enemies of the Dolonki and fought them for possession of the Khersonese (Chersonese).

At the advice of the oracle at Delphi, the Dolonki made the Athenian, Miltiades, their tyrant (circa 540 BCE); Miltiades built a wall which effectively kept the Apsinthians from continuing their war with the Dolonki.

Histories, book 6, chapters 35-36
