Notes on the current edition

Ab Urbe Condita With An English Translation, books 1-10, 21-45, with periochae 11-20

1. Plainly visible from Demetrias across the gulf. The height of the mountain is 2112 ft. Cf. Polybius X. xlii. 7.
2. For signalling by fires cf. XXIX. vi. 8, 10. Polybius has an excursus of several pages on the subject, including improvements he had himself made; l.c. xliii-xlvii. The Romans seem to have made no use of so elaborate a system; cf. Riepl, Das Nachrichtenwesen des Altertums 61 f., 74 ff., 91 ff.
3. A stronghold of the Eastern Locrians and a seaport 2 1/2 miles east of Thermopylae; XXXII. xxxii. 9; xxxv. 2; Polybius X. xlii. 4; XVIII. vii. 8; Strabo IX. iv. 13.
