Transcription: It was the spring of 334 BC when Alexander set off on the great expedition in Asia. The king and his army departed from Pella and arrived at Sestos after a 20-day march. There he passed all his troops over to Abydos on 160 triremes under the command of Paminion. Alexander visited Ileon with a small shoot from Sestos after sailing from Elunda to the port of Achae or the cost of Ellis Point.
