χωρίον δὲ ὀνομαζόμενον Φοίζων περὶ εἴκοσί που σταδίους τῶν τάφων ἐστὶν ἀπωτέρω τούτων· ὁ δὲ Φοίζων μνῆμά ἐστι λίθου περιεχόμενον κρηπῖδι, ἀνέχον δὲ οὐ πολὺ ὑπὲρ τῆς γῆς. κατὰ τοῦτο ἥ τε ὁδὸς μάλιστα στενὴ γίνεται καὶ τὸ μνῆμα Ἀρηιθόου λέγουσιν εἶναι, Κορυνήτου διὰ τὸ ὅπλον ἐπονομασθέντος.

A Place called Phoezon is about twenty stades distant from these graves. Phoezon is a tomb of stone surrounded with a basement, raised only a little above the ground. At this point the road becomes very narrow, and here, they say, is the tomb of Areithous, surnamed Corynetes (Clubman) because of his weapon.
