tichos^ and Temnos'. Upon the shore we come to the river 

 Titanus, and the city which from it derives its name. Grynia' 

 also stood here on an island reclaimed from the sea and joined 

 to the land : now only its harbours are left*. We then come 

 to the town of Elsea*, the river Caicus", which flows from 

 Mysia, the toA^Ti of Pitane^, and the river Canaius. The fol- 

 lowing towns no longer exist — Canae^ Lysimachia^, Atarnea*",

 from Larissa.

 of that name mentioned in the last Cliapter, wliicli stood on the sea-coast. 

 It suffered from the great earthquake in the reign of Tiberius Csesar. 



5 Or Grynium, forty stadia from Myrina, and seventy from Elsea. It 

 contained a sanctuary of Apollo with an ancient oracle and a splendid 

 temple of white marble. Parmenio, the general of Alexander, took the 

 place by assault and sold the inliabitants as slaves. It is again mentioned 

 by PUny in B. xxxii. c. 21.

 arrive at Pliny's exact meaning. 



' The port of the Pergameni. Strabo places it south of the river 

 Caicus, twelve stadia from that river, and 120 from Pergamum. Its site 

 is uncertain, but Leake fixes it at a place called Kliseli, on the road from 

 the south to Pergamum.

 fleet was hauled up for the winter and protected by a ditch or rampart.
