In 559 BC, Cyrus deposes Astyages of Media and begins to consolidate his new Persian state, which he accomplishes by 549 BC when he captures the Median capital of Ecbatana. However, he must confront a challenge in the west from Croesus of Lydia who wishes to restore his brother-in-law Astyages to the throne. Croesus organizes an alliance with Egypt and Babylon, crossing the Halys River to invade Persia in 547 BC. Cyrus marches to meet Croesus and a sharp, indecisive battle is fought at Pteria. Croesus withdraws across the Halys into winter quarters and sends many of his mercenaries home but Cyrus does not oblige and soon follows Croesus. At first, Croesus does not believe the rumours of Cyrus’ march through Anatolia but must hastily reassemble an army when the Persians approach his capital of Sardis. Though not as greatly as that autumn, Croesus still outnumbers Cyrus when they meet on the Plain of Thymbra.. Extrinsic.
