Strabo – “Geography”
“There remain of Europe, first, Macedonia and the parts of Thrace that are contiguous to it and extend as far as Byzantium; secondly, Greece; and thirdly, the islands that are close by. Macedonia, of course, is a part of Greece, yet now, since I am following the nature and shape of the places geographically, I have decided to classify it apart from the rest of Greece and to join it with that part of Thrace which borders on it and extends as far as the mouth of the Euxine and the Propontis. Then, a little further on, Strabo mentions Cypsela and the Hebrus River, and also describes a sort of parallelogram in which the whole of Macedonia lies.”

WHENCE CAME <strong>THE</strong> ACHEANS ? 369<br />
winter, and where the reindeer was hunted till<br />
far into the Christian era, the tall fair-haired races are still<br />
found in especial purity and freedom from admixture. At<br />
the dawn of history they were already there, and from that<br />
cradle of their race, where they still multiply<br />
with unabated<br />
vigour, they have continued ever since to spread over the rest<br />
of Europe.<br />
Diodorus says<br />
:<br />
" It is worth while to define accurately what<br />
many are ignorant of For they give the name of Celts<br />
(KeXroi) to those who dwell above Massalia in the interior<br />
and those along the Alps, and moreover, to those on this side<br />
the Pyrenean mountains, but they term Gauls (FaXarai) those<br />
settled above this Keltike into the parts looking [north] both<br />
along the Ocean and the Hercynian Mountain and all those in<br />
succession right up to :<br />
Scythia but the Romans embrace all<br />
these nations under one comprehensive ay)pellation and call<br />
them all (Jauls. The women of the Gauls are not only similar<br />
in stature to the men, but are their rivals in ,<br />
of<br />
valour. Their children at birth are white-haii-ed (TroXid) for<br />
the most pai't,<br />
but as they grow older they change to their<br />
fathers' complexion. As those who dwell near the noi'th and<br />
border on Scythia, are very fierce, it is I'epoited<br />
that some of<br />

country called Iris (Ireland).<br />
"So noised abroad is their valour and fierceness that some<br />
say that these ai-.<br />
