Αἰθικία, ὡς Κιλικία. Θεόπομπος τριακοστῇ ἐνάτῃ Φιλιππικῶν. τὸ ἐθνικὸν Αἴθικες, ὡς Κίλικες. ἐν Θετταλίᾳ δ´ ᾤκουν ἐν τῷ Πίνδῳ ὄρει. Μαρσύας δὲ μέσον τῆς Τυμφαίας καὶ Ἀθαμανίας κεῖσθαί φησι τὴν χώραν. τὸ δὲ ἔθνος [ἐπιεικῶς] παράβολόν τε καὶ βάρβαρον καὶ λῃστείαις ἐπιεικῶς προσκείμενον.

Aithikia: as 'Kilikia'. Theopompos in the thirty-ninth of the Philippika. The ethnonym Aithikes, as 'Kilikes'. They dwelt in Thessaly on Mount Pindos. Marsyas says the land lies between Tymphaia and Athamania. The people rather reckless and barbarous and tolerably given to brigandage.
