Notes on the current edition

Histories

1. The “sea called Red,” it will be remembered, is the sea south and east of Arabian Peninsula [45,25] (region (general)), Asia Arabia : the gulf entering in from it is our Red Sea . Suppose the Delta to have been once a gulf too, then there would have been two gulfs, both running up into Egypt [30,27] (nation), Africa Egypt , their heads not far from each other.
