Κοραξοί, ἔθνος Κόλχων πλησίον Κώλων. Ἑκαταῖος Ἀσίᾳ. Κοραξικὸν τεῖχος καὶ Κοραξικὴ χώρα.
…, ἀφ´ οὗ Χαράξης. Ὀλόφυξος πόλις ἐν Θρᾴκῃ περὶ τὸν Ἄθω. Ἴξος λιμὴν τῆς Ῥόδου. τὸ μέντοι ἰξός τὸ προσηγορικὸν ὀξύνεται, καὶ τὸ λοξός, φοξός ὡς ἐπίθετα καὶ τὸ κοραξός ὡς ἐπίθετον ὀξύνεται, βαρύνεται δὲ ὡς ἐθνικόν. ἔστι δὲ ἔθνος Κόλχων πλησίον Κώλων. Ἑκαταῖος Εὐρώπῃ. τὸ δὲ λαξός καὶ φυλλοξός κατὰ συγκοπὴν ἀπὸ τοῦ λαοξόος καὶ φυλλοξόος γέγονεν.
