2 Others

In 1430 BC, Methydrium was struck by famine due to a flood.

Dardanus moved to Samothrace, leaving Idaeus' brother Deimas and half of the inhabitants.

In 1420 BC, Samothrace was hit by a great tsunami, and Dardanus moved to the Troad.

Idaeus' mother, Chryse, is presumed to have been a victim of the tsunami.

Later, Idaeus lived near Mt. Ida.
