The Mytilean revolt (428-427 BCE) was an incident during the Peloponnesian War in which the city of Mytilene attempted to unify the island of Lesbos under its control and leave the Athenian-led Delian League.

History

Lesbos had sided with Athens' Delian League since the beginning of the war, providing it ships. They had a falling out, and collaborating with Sparta, the Mytileneans revolted.[1]

Kleon, having risen to power following the death of Perikles [2], took it upon himself to deal with the revolt[3], intending to wipe out the Mytileneans completely.[4][5]
