Reading edition
Joannes Antiochenus has borrowed the same history, and calls this king Sostris. Εβασιλευσεν Αιγυπτιων πρωτος εκ της φυλης του Χαμ Σωστρις. p. 23. He adds, that Sostris, or Sesostris, lived in the time of Hermes, Ἑρμης ὁ τρισμεγιστος Αιγυπτιος. He was succeeded by Pharaoh, πρωτος, the first of the name. Ibid. Herodotus calls him Pheron, and Pherona. l. 2. c. 111.
