Νεάνδρεια, πόλις Τρῳάδος ἐν Ἑλλησπόντῳ, ὡς Χάραξ. ἔν τισι δὲ Λέανδρος γράφεται διὰ τοῦ « λ » κακῶς. λέγεται καὶ Νεάνδρειον οὐδετέρως, ὡς Θεόπομπος. ὁ πολίτης Νεανδρεύς, ὡς Στράβων.
Neandreia: a city of the Troad on the Hellespont, as Charax [says]. But in some sources it is written “Leandros,” with lambda, incorrectly. It is also called Neandreion in the neuter, as Theopompos [records]. The ethnicon is Neandreus, as Strabo.
