…ιβύης «οἵ τινες τὰ ἄνθη συλλέγοντες μέλι ποιοῦσιν ὥστε μὴ λείπεσθαι τοῦ ὑπὸ τῶν μελισσῶν γινομένου», ὡς Εὔδοξος ὁ Κνίδιος ἐν ἕκτῳ γῆς περιόδου. Σάλγας ποταμὸς τῆς Μαυριτανίας, Βησσύγας ποταμὸς τῆς Ἰνδικῆς. Ἀκράγας πόλις Σικελίας ἀπὸ ποταμοῦ παραρρέοντος. φησὶ γὰρ Δοῦρις ὅτι αἱ πλεῖσται τῶν Σικελῶν πόλεων ἐκ τῶν ποταμῶν ὀνομάζονται, Συρακούσας, Γέλαν, Ἱμέραν, Σελινοῦντα καὶ Φοινικοῦντα καὶ Ἐρύκην καὶ Καμικόν Ἁλικύας τε καὶ Θέρμον καὶ Καμάριναν, ὡς καὶ ἐν Ἰταλίᾳ. οἱ δὲ ἀπὸ Ἀκράγαντος τοῦ Διὸς καὶ Ἀστερόπης τῆς Ὠκεανοῦ. ἔστι καὶ Θρᾴκης καὶ Εὐβοίας καὶ Κύπρου καὶ Αἰτωλίας. Πολύβιος δὲ τὸν ποταμὸν καὶ τὴν πόλιν ἀπὸ τῆς χώρας ὠνομάσθαι Ἀκράγης διὰ τὸ εὔγεων.
