Ὅτι περὶ τὴν προϊστορηθεῖσαν Μαιῶτιν αὐτοί τέ εἰσιν οἱ Μαιῶται, οἱ τῆς Μαιώτιδος δηλονότι παρώνυμοι, ἢ καὶ τυχὸν ἐξ ὧν ἡ Μαιῶτις λίμνη κέκληται· καὶ οἱ Σαυρομάται δὲ πρὸς αὐτῇ κεῖνται, ὕλην ναίοντες ἀπείριτον, δι' ἧς μέσης ὁ Τάναϊς συρόμενος ἐς μέσα πίπτει τῆς Μαιώτιδος· ὃς Εὐρώπην Ἀσίας ἀποτέμνεται, εἰς δύσιν μὲν Εὐρώπην, εἰς δ' αὐγὰς τὴν Ἀσίαν. Περὶ δὲ τούτων εἴρηται ὅσα ἔδει ἐν τοῖς φθάσασιν.
