Rh the mouth of the Sangarius, or about 113 Englih miles; and everal maps agree nearly' with this ditance: but Mr. Arrowmith's chart makes it to be les than 87 Englih miles, or about 760 tadia. The Peutingerian Tables make it 148 miles, equal to 1184 tadia. Strabo ays, that it is 500 tadia from the mouth of the Sangarius to Heraclea. Arrian makes it to be 660. Modern maps in general agree with Strabo's computation; but Mr. Arrowmith's chart makes it only about 30 Englih miles, or about 262 tadia. Ptolemy makes the ditance to be one degree of longitude, which in that latitude is about 52 Englih miles and a half, or about 400 tadia.

From the mouth of the Sangarius to that of the Hippus 180 tadia. This ditance is et down in Ptolemy as equal to a degree of longitude, or 52.452 Englih miles; but Arrian makes it 22.5 Greek miles, equal to 20.5 Englih miles, and is nearer the truth. The Peutingerian Tables make it 19 Greek miles, or about 152 tadia. The Hippus is mentioned by Scylax, and by Apollonius, and characteried by the latter as a deep river.

From the Hippus to Lilium Emporium 100 tadia. D'Anvillle's map places a river here; if o, this was the port at its mouth; but I cannot find any mention of one. There is, however, in all the modern maps, a place called Halebli, at the mouth of a river, which agrees nearly with the ituation of this place.

From Lilliam Emporium to Elem 60 tadia. 'D'Anville's map places
