Battle of Lade (201 BC)

The Battle of Lade was fought between the navy of Rhodes and the navy of Macedon. The battle took place in 201 BC as part of the Cretan War, which lasted from 205 to 200 BC. The battle was a continuation of hostilities from the Battle of Chios (201 BC).
The battle was fought off the shore of Asia Minor and the island of Lade, near Miletus. The battle ended in a victory for the Macedonians.
As the Rhodian fleet was sailing in the strait between Lade and Miletus on the shore of Asia Minor, Philip's fleet attacked them. Philip defeated the Rhodian fleet in the Battle of Lade and forced it to retreat back to Rhodes.
