Battle of Artemisium
The naval Battle of Artemisium took place, according to tradition, on the same day as the Battle of Thermopylae on August 11 480 BC, though its exact date may be a few days prior or after (Prentice, 13). It was fought between an alliance of Greek city-states and the Persians in 480 BC.
