[2] So, the territory facing the Peloponnesus and pointing toward Boeotia is occupied by the Phocians [ Phōkeîs], that is, the people of Phokis.This territory stretches to the seaand makes contact with it on one side at Cirrha, the port of Delphi, and on the other side at the city of Antikyra. In the direction of the Lamian Gulf, there is a population that prevents the people of Phokis from being coastal dwellers: this population, situated between Phokis and the sea, are the people who are named Lokroi Hypoknēmidioi [= people of Lokris who dwell in the foothills]. By these people is the boundary of Phokis defined in this direction, by the people of Skarpheia on the other side of Elateia, and by Opous and its port Kūnos beyond Hyampolis and Abai.

[2] Opposite the Peloponnesus , and in the direction of Boeotia , Phocis stretches to the sea, and touches it on one side at Cirrha , the port of Delphi , and on the other at the city of Anticyra. In the direction of the Lamian Gulf there are between Phocis and the sea only the Hypocnemidian Locrians. By these is Phocis bounded in this direction, by Scarpheia on the other side of Elateia , and by Opus and its port Cynus beyond Hyampolis and Abae.
