eona}.]

97 [ i.e. the Mediterranean: or the passage may mean simply, "Thrace
runs out further into the sea than Scythia".]

98 [ {gounon}.]

99 [ More literally, "I say this, so far as it is allowed to compare,
etc. Such is the form of the Tauric land".]

100 [ {ede}. The Agathyrsians however have not been mentioned before in
this connection.]

101 [ {stadia}.]

102 [ {tes Skuthikes ta epikarsia}, i.e. the lines running from West to
East.]

103 [ {epanakhthentes}: so the Medicean MS. and another: the rest have
{epanakhthentas}. Some Editors read by conjecture {apeneikhthentas},
"cast away on their coast".]

104 [ {neoisi}.]

105 [ {trieteridas}.]

106 [ Or, "were driven out".]

107 [ {phtheirotrageousi}.]

108 [ Or, "Aiorpata," and "aior" below.]

109 [ i.e. the Royal Scythians: see ch. 20.]

110 [ {epi touto}, the reading of the Aldine edition. The MSS. have {epi
touto}. Stein suggests {dia touto}.]

111 [ {ou peisometha}: some MSS. read {ouk oisometha}. Editors have
emended by conjecture in various ways, e.g. {ou periopsometha}, "we
shall not allow it"; {oi epoisometha} or {oi epeisometha}, "we shall go
out to attack him"; {aposometha}, "we shall repel him".]

112 [ {paras}, or {pasai}, belonging to {gunaikes}.]

113 [ {khersou}, "dry".]

114 [ Perhaps the same as the "Hyrgis" mentioned in ch. 57. Some Editors
read "Hyrgis" in this passage.]

115 [ See ch. 119.]

116 [ {klaiein lego}.]

117 [ {touto esti e apo Skutheon resis}: this refers to the last words,
{klaiein lego}. Most Editors have doubts about the genuineness of the
sentence, regarding it a marginal gloss which has crept into the text;
but perhaps without sufficient reason.]

118 [ Or, "with some slight effect on the course of the war".]

119 [ See i. 216.]

120 [ {eremothentes tou omilou}.]

121 [ {iesan tes phones}.]

122 [ {e mia kai Sauromatai}: some Editors read {e meta Sauromateon}.
The MSS. give {e mia Sauromatai} (some {Sauromateon}). Stein inserts
{kai}.]

123 [ {khairontes eleutheroi}.]

124 [ The list includes only those who voted in favour of the proposal
of Histiaios (i.e. Miltiades is not included in it): hence perhaps Stein
is right in suggesting some change in the text, e.g. {oi diapherontes te
ten psephon basileos kai eontes logou pleistou}. The absence of the
name of Coes is remarked by several commentators, who forget that he had
accompanied Dareios: see ch. 97.]

125 [ Or, "and even so they found
