Strabo Geography 17.3.6

[6] On sailing into the interior sea, from Lynx, there are Zelis ¹ a city and Tingis, ² then the monuments of the Seven Brothers, ³ and the mountain lying below, of the name of Abyle, ⁴ abounding with wild animals and trees of a great size. They say, that the length of the strait at the pillars is 120 stadia, and the least breadth at Elephas ⁵ 60 stadia On sailing further along the coast, we find cities and many rivers, as far as the river Molochath, ⁶ which is the boundary between the territories of the Mauretanians and of the Masaesyli. Near the river is a large promontory, and Metagonium, ⁷ a place without water and barren. The mountain extends along the coast, from the Coteis nearly to this place. Its length from the Coteis to the borders of the Masaesylii ⁸ is 5000 stadia. Metagonium is nearly opposite to New Carthage. ⁹ Timosthenes is mistaken in saying that it is opposite to Massalia. ¹⁰ The passage across from New Carthage to Metagonium is 3000 stadia, but the voyage along the coast to Massalia is above 6000 stadia.
