¹ This is not apparent in Renou’s text (set out p. 233 n. 2), based on X (on the MSS see App. 13). But the note in Renou’s apparatus, p. 25, shows that Γ and ω read ἡ δὲ περὶ τὰ στόματα τοῦ Ἴνδου for παρὰ of X (which cannot be right, as Patalene was περὶ) and that Γ also inserts a second ἡ περὶ, thus making a reading ἡ δὲ περὶ (read παρὰ) τὰ στόματα τοῦ Ἴνδου καὶ ἡ περὶ τὸν Κανθικὸν κόλπον Συραστρηνή, which certainly suggests the loss of a province-name after Ἴνδου. The name may have fallen out early and the lacuna been smoothed over in X and ω.
