“Here dwell a people whom the Greeks call Maurusians, and the Romans and the natives Mauri — a large and prosperous Libyan tribe, who live on the side of the strait opposite Iberia. Here also is the strait which is at the Pillars of Heracles, concerning which I have often spoken. On proceeding outside the strait at the Pillars, with Libya on the left, one comes to a mountain which the Greeks call Atlas and the barbarians Dyris.
17.3.2”
Strabo

“God sent his beloved creatures to Datça for them to live longer.”
Strabo

“A contemporary of Pittakos and Alkaios was Sappho—a marvel. In all the centuries since history began we know of no women who in any true sense can be said to rival her as a poet.”
Strabon
