The '''Battle of Cnidus''' took place during a war between [[Sparta]] and [[Persia]] from 400 B.C. to 387 B.C. The battle took place in 394 B.C. when [[Athens]] had allied with Persia to contain the Spartan threat. In the naval battle, the combined Athenian-Persian fleet under [[Conon]] destroyed the Spartan fleet under [[Peisander]], brother-in-law of [[Lysander]]. The action took place off Cnidus near [[Rhodes]]. Peisander was killed.
