公元前405年呂山德在此地戰役中率斯巴達軍全殲雅典艦隊,結束了伯羅奔尼撒戰爭[3][4]現存4~5世紀錢幣可證明同名古希臘村莊的存在。[5]河流本身則位於古代色雷斯半島英語Thracian Chersonese古希臘語Θρακικὴ Χερσόνησος羅馬化:Thrakiké Chersónesos拉丁語Chersonesus Thracica,即今加里波利半島)。[1]

據包括老普林尼亞里士多德在內的古代史料記錄了公元前467年有一塊隕石落在了埃戈斯溪附近。據記載其為棕色,大小約為一輛馬車可裝載。在隕石墜落時還有彗星目擊報告,目前認為該彗星是哈雷彗星。這可能是歐洲最早的哈雷彗星記錄。[6][7]

伊哥斯波塔米位於達達尼爾海峽附近、現代土耳其城市粟特魯斯土耳其語Sütlüce, Gelibolu東北方。[8]
