Note 829 — BOOK XXXIII. THE NATURAL HISTORY OF METALS.647
John Bostock translation
This story of the defeat of the great Ramses-Sesostris by a petty king of Colchis, would almost appear apocryphal. It is not improbable, however, that Sesostris, when on his Thracian expedition, may have received a repulse on penetrating further north, accustomed as his troops must have been, to a warmer climate.
