Note 318 — Chapter III · VELLEIUS, CURTIUS AND HISTORY
Reading edition
Diod. Sic., II. vii. (96): ὡς δὲ Κλείταρχος, καὶ τῶν ὕστερον μετ’ Ἀλεξάνδρου διαβάντων εἰς τὴν Ἀσίαν τινὲς ἀνέγραψαν: cf. Strab., XI. v. 4, where Clitarchus’s statement regarding the Amazon queen who visited Alexander and his record of a geographical distance in stades from the Caspian do not prove his participation in the expedition.
