[Footnote 1302: i.e. the Shining One.]

[Footnote 1303: A name of Ares.]

BOOK IV.

[Footnote 1401: The allusion is to Sesotris. See Herodotus ii. 102
foll.]

[Footnote 1402: Or, reading EMETEREN, "into our sea". The Euxine is
meant in any case and the word Ionian is therefore wrong.]

[Footnote 1403: Apollonius seems to have thought that the Po, the Rhone,
and the Rhine are all connected together.]

[Footnote 1404: i.e. like the scrapings from skin, APOSTLEGGISMATA; see
Strabo p. 224 for this adventure.]

[Footnote 1405: The "Symplegades" are referred to, where help was given
by Athena, not by Hera. It is strange that no mention is made of the
"Planctae", properly so called, past which they are soon to be helped.
Perhaps some lines have fallen out.]

[Footnote 1406: i.e. the Mighty One.]

[Footnote 1407: i.e. the Wanderers.]

[Footnote 1408: A fabulous metal, resembling gold in appearance.]

[Footnote 1409: i.e. the Sickle-island.]

[Footnote 1410: The old name of Corinth.]

[Footnote 1411: This seems to be the only possible translation, but the
optative is quite anomalous. We should expect EKOMIZES.]

[Footnote 1412: An old name of the Peloponnesus.]

[Footnote 1413: i.e. the isle of Revealing.]
