198 DISTRICT OF TROAS. 
CHAP, the University Library at Cambridge^. Arriving 
^_ -~-^ afterwards at the village of Udjek, distant two 
hours from Bergas, we copied another Inscription 
from a smaller piece of marble : this we left in 
the country. The legend is as follows : 
SPLENDIDISSIMVS 
POPVLVS 
COL • AVG-TROADENS 
AVRELIVM- lOBACCHVM 
CVRATOREM 
. . . IDIOMENOGEN 
Tomb of We then proceeded to Udjek Tipe, or the 
^iyetes. '^^^q^^q Tumuliis of JEsyetcs, whose situation 
precisely agrees with the account given of that 
monument by Straho. It is of all others the 
spot most remarkably adapted for viewing the 
Plain of Troy, and it is visible in almost all parts 
in the neighbourbood come there to obtain relief for different diseases, 
Pococke says, some have thought this to be Larissa. This conjecture, 
I think, is very much strengthened by a reference which I find 
Athena!us makes, among other hot waters, to those at Troic Larissa. 
See lib. ii. c. 5. • 
" Near the hot baths may be seen specimens of the netted building 
{opus reticulatitm, as Vitruvius calls it) of the antient Alexandrians, or 
Larisseans. A small rivulet runs in the plain below. 
*' I returned to Kistambol, with the remains of a lamb, which were 
to serve for our supper, and which the guide had bought at Alexandria 
for the value of three shillings, English. While 1 examined the 
Ruins, it was killed, skinned, and roasted on the spot by a large wood 
fire." Walpole's MS. Journal.
