[4] Themisonium above Laodiceia is also inhabited by Phrygians. When the army of the Gauls was laying waste Ionia and the borders of Ionia, the Themisonians say that they were helped by Hēraklēs, Apollo, and Hermes, who revealed to their magistrates in dreams a cave and commanded that in it should be hidden the Themisonians with their wives and children.
