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.”

g WHENCE CAME <strong>THE</strong> ACHEANS ? 393<br />
(p. 390) Diodoru.s" says that the Celts, who sacked Rome, as<br />
well as those who later plundered Delphi, and settled in Asia<br />
Minor, were Cinibri. Appian^ makes the same statement concerning<br />
those who attacked Delphi.<br />
On the other hand we have just seen that Jutland and<br />
Holstein were the original cradle of the race, a fact which at<br />
first sight would foster tlie belief that they were Germans.<br />
The solution of this apparent contrafliction is given us <strong>by</strong> the<br />
divine Julius himself, who clearly indicates that there was no<br />
difference between the Germans and the Celts, who formed the<br />
master race in Gaul, where they had found an ancient darkhaired<br />
race, who became the henchmen of the con(juerors.<br />
The concfuering German or Celtic tribes tolerated and treated<br />
with respect the priestly caste of Druids, and even' embraced<br />
the religion of their vassals^.<br />
The Cimbri had wandered far and wide in historical times^,<br />
and their name seems to have become a term for a ruthless<br />
mai-auder, as did that of the Vandals in later days.<br />
There is therefore no reason why<br />
in still eai-lier davs bands<br />
from the land of the Cimmerians should not have ])assed<br />
down<br />
the Rhine, entered the Daiuibe valley, ))assed down it into<br />
southern Russia, when' we meet them in the seventh centiny<br />
H.c, or why others (;f them should not have entered Xoricum,<br />
as did the ( 'iniljii in 113 lie. and thence descend, as so often<br />
did the ('inibii in later days, <strong>by</strong> tlie valley<br />
of the Save into<br />
Thrace and thence cross into Asia, and hai'ass the cities of the<br />
