Notes on the current edition

Anabasis

1. At this point the fronts of the two armies—which were facing in opposite directions, and, further, each in the direction opposite to that which it took in the first encounter—were in approximately the same straight line. It should be noted that Xenophon means by the left wing of the Greeks that which had been the left wing in the original formation, but had now become the right.
2. The Greek line was now, as in the beginning, at right angles to the Euphrates . The movement here described would (if executed) have made it parallel to the river, the latter serving as a defence in the rear.
