 there are not the leaft Traces to be met with of any fuch Haven, 

 as Ccefarea is reported to have had ; neither have we here the 

 Footfteps of thofe malTy Walls and capacious Cifterns, which 

 are common to other Roman Stations, vaftly inferiour to what 

 Ctefarea mull have been, for Extent and Magnificence. How- 

 ever, if any of Ttolemfs Cities had This Situation, Carcome 

 may plead the greateft Right to It, as following Cartenn^ and 

 Carepula in the Order of His Tables. 



A little Way from Tnifs, there is a high rocky Mountain, Nackos, or 

 that ftretches out a great Way into the Sea. It is called byMONxoRi- 

 our Modern Geographers Cape Tennes^ but by the Moors C <^y'^^ Liwis. £.«. 

 Nackos, or Nakonfe'] The Bell, from the Figure of the (?r<?//o,' " 

 formed in the lower Part of It. This is one of the moft remark- 

 able Promontories of This Country, and, in advancing towards 

 It from the Coatt of Spain, appears (in the Mariners Stile) like 

 the Head of a Wild-Boar. By the Order oiTtolemys Tables, 

 and by It's Diftance of i°.4o'. only from ^r fen aria, Nakkos may 

 be well taken for the Tromontormm Apollinis of the Antients. 



Four Leagues from This Cape to the Eaftward, are the Beni Bem Head- 

 Head-jah ; and at the like Diftance from Them, are the Dajh- Beni How- 

 kras of the Be?ii How ah, two powerful Tribes of Africans. The 

 coafting Brigantines find Shelter under the Covert of a few 

 Illands, ranged along This Part of the Coaft : one of which, be- 

 longing to the Beni Hoiuah, is not inferiour, in Circuit, to the 

 Tigeon IJland. The Jutting out of the Mountain, over againft 

 It, is diftinguiflied, very conveniently for Mariners, by a Watch- 

 Tower. 



Two Leagues to the Eaftward of the Beni How ah, we fallDah-mufs, 

 in with a fmall Creek, and fome Ruins, which formerly might GermLo-
