The prince was  named  satrap,  or regulator, of the Nile by his brother  Xerxes I (486-466  B.C.E.),  Darius  Is heritor. In 481 B.C.E., Achaemenes led a combatant force published of conscripted  Egyptians  gathered  to  conduct  various  military runs, including rounds on the Greeks. These wholes were frustrated at the battle of salamis by the Greeks. Returning  to  Egypt,  Achaemenes  action  the  harsh ruling  policies  of  Xerxes,  enslaving  Egypt  as  a  Persian province  with  little  value.  some  a  policy  stemmed  from Persian decline for the Egyptian religious or philosophical  heritage  and  a  firm belief  in  the  unique  revelations interesting  human  things  which  had  been  contributed upon  the  Persian  people.  The  arrogation  of  temple wealth  was  carried out  at  least  in  one  instance,  and Xerxes  did  not  endear  himself to  the captured  Egyptians by bearing ancient titles or roles in holding with Nile traditions.
