Ὅμηρον τοίνυν Πίνδαρος (fr. 264) μὲν ἔφη Χῖόν τε καὶ Σμυρναῖον γενέσθαι, Σιμωνίδης (fr. 85) δὲ Χῖον, Ἀντίμαχος δὲ καὶ Νίκανδρος (fr. 14 Schn.) Κολοφώνιον, Ἀριστοτέλης (cf. i. 3) δʼ ὁ φιλόσοφος Ἰήτην, Ἔφορος (cf. i. 7) δʼ ὁ ἱστορικὸς Κυμαῖον. οὐκ ὤκνησαν δέ τινες Σαλαμίνιον αὐτὸν εἰπεῖν ἀπὸ Κύπρου, τινὲς δʼ Ἀργεῖον, Ἀρίσταρχος δὲ καὶ Διονύσιος ὁ Θρᾷξ Ἀθηναῖον. υἱὸς δʼ ὑπʼ ἐνίων λέγεται Μαίονος καὶ Κριθηίδος, ὑπὸ δέ τινων Μέλητος τοῦ ποταμοῦ.
