To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
(Ptol. iv. 6, 23 ; vii. 2, 13; Oros. i. 2; .^thic. 57, 106; Arr. Ea^. iii. v.; Isid. ix. 2, 41; xvii. 9, 27; Plin. vi.
§ 65 ; xxii. § 101 ; Solin. 49, 6 ; 52, 8.) A little above the tree is CatirUStnia, and on the other side of the mountain '^ItXB.VitSXidL CtbttaS, two names for the same town, Alexandria, founded by Alexander, ia the country of the Cadrusi, and due to a misunderstanding, as it seems, by Solinus, of the passage in which Phny mentions it.
Solinus calls it. Cadrusium. (Plin. vi. §... 92 ; SoIlq. 54, 2 ; Diet. Geogr. i. 463.) Near these towns is an inscription founded on a passage in Solinus, descriptive of a peculiar people living near the sources of the Ganges, probably the Gangines already de- scribed : — Siolmus : ffiangis fontem qui acolunt i solo biJjunt otjore jjomorum sil&estrium; qui si fttorm SCnSerint, Statim moriuntur. The story comes from Megasthenes, who says that these people, whom he calls aanfioi, mouthless, live on the smell of roast meat and the scents of fruits and flowers, and are so much annoyed by bad smells, especially in camp, that they scarcely survive them.
