[8] Tithorea is, I should guess, about one hundred and eighty stadium-lengths distant from Delphi on the road across Parnassus. This road is not mountainous throughout, being fit even for vehicles but was said to be several stadium-lengths longer. I am aware that Herodotus in his account of the Persian invasion gives the town a different name from that given to it in the oracles of Bacis.
