³ Translated by McCrindle in *Ind. Ant.* x, 296; the translation was also published separately at Calcutta in 1882. All the pre-Alexandrine notices of India are laboriously collected and discussed by Wilhelm Reese in *Die griechischen Nachrichten über Indien bis zum Feldzuge Alexanders des Grossen*, a pamphlet of 106 pages including bibliography, Teubner, Leipzig, 1914. The notices include scraps from Aristotle, who seems to have used Hecataeus and Ktēsias. Herodotus seems to rest on Hecataeus and Skylax.
