…άττουζα πόλις Θρᾴκης, ἐν ᾗ κατῴκουν οἱ Πυγμαῖοι. Θελάμουζα φρούριον τῆς παρ´ Εὐφράτην Ἀραβίας. Τίριζα πόλις Παφλαγονίας. Τυρόδιζα πόλις Θρᾴκης μετὰ Σέρριον. Ἑλλάνικος δὲ Τυρόριζαν αὐτήν φησιν ἐν Περσικῶν δευτέρῳ. ἅμαξα. Ἄμαξα χωρίον Βιθυνίας, ὡς Ἐρατοσθένης. Ἄραξα πόλις Λυκίας, ὡς Ἀλέξανδρος ἐν δευτέρῳ τῶν Λυκιακῶν. Δάραψα πόλις Βακτρίας, ὡς Στράβων. Βαίσαμψα πόλις ἐν τῷ Ἀραβικῷ κόλπῳ περὶ τὴν Ἐρυθρὰν θάλασσαν, ὅ ἐστιν οἶκος ἡλίου.
