is that all but the Eastern parts are known to be surrounded by sea.]

45 [ {logion}: some MSS. have {logimon}, "of reputation".]

46 [ Stein reads {eisi de} for {eisi de}, and punctuates so that the
meaning is, "it has become the greatest of all rivers in the following
manner:--besides other rivers which flow into it, those which especially
make it great are as follows".]

47 [ {pente men oi}: this perhaps requires emendation, but the
corrections proposed are hardly satisfactory, e.g. {pente megaloi} or
{pente monoi}.]

48 [ Or "Skios": called by Thucydides "Oskios" (ii. 96).]

49 [ {eti}: most of the MSS. give {esti}, which is adopted by some
Editors.]

50 [ "Sacred Ways".]

51 [ {Gerreon}: in some MSS. {Gerrou}, "the region called Gerros".]

52 [ {tesserakonta}: some Editors have altered this number, but without
authority or sufficient reason.]

53 [ {di eremou}: see note 25 on ch. 18. The region here spoken of is
that between the Gerrians and the agricultural Scythians.]

5301 [ {es touto elos}: i.e. the Dneiper-Liman. (The Medicean and
Florentine MSS. read {es to elos}, not {es to telos}, as hitherto
reported.)]

54 [ {eon embolon tes khores}.]

57 [ Or, "Apia".]

68 [ See i. 105.]

69 [ {kuperou}: it is not clear what plant is meant.]

70 [ i.e. for this purpose. The general use of bronze is attested by ch.
81.]

71 [ {ode anabibazontes, epean k.t.l}: the reference of {ode} is
directly to the clause {epean----trakhelou}, though in sense it refers
