Strab. xiii. 4. t. iii. p. 155. Chandler’s description is almost a translation of Strabo. “This region which is above, or to the east of Philadelphia, was called Catakekaumenè, or the Burned. By some it was reckoned in Mysia, by others in Mœonia, or Lydia. It was five hundred stadia, or sixty-two miles and a half long; and four hundred stadia, or fifty miles broad; and anciently bare of trees, but covered with vines, which produced the wine called by its name, and esteemed not inferior to any in goodness.” i. 284.
