[2] Bordering on the territory of Phokis is a land named after Boulon, the leader of the colony, which was founded by a union of emigrants from the cities in ancient Doris. The people of Boulis are said of Philomēlos and the men of Phokis … the general assembly. To Boulis from Thisbe in Boeotia is a journey of eighty stadium-lengths; but I do not know if in Phokis there be a road by land at all from Antikyra, so rough and difficult to cross are the mountains between Antikyra and Boulis. To the harbor from Antikyra is a sail of one hundred stadium-lengths, and the road by land from the harbor to Boulis we conjectured to be about seven stadium-lengths long.
