Translation statusMeineke differs from the Billerbeck OCR text in a mix of mechanical notational variants (a numeral/abbreviation for Strabo's 'fourth' vs spelled-out ordinal, punctuation/orthography) and substantive textual differences: Meineke inserts the comparative phrase 'ὡς Ἀσκαλωνῖτις' applied to the lake (and repeats it), and replaces δὲ with καὶ in the clause with Ἑκαταῖος, changing connective nuance.
