CHAP. 91. (89.)—ISLANDS WHICH HAVE BEEN UNITED TO
THE MAIN LAND.
Again, islands are taken from the sea and added to the
main land; Antissa [Note] to Lesbos, Zephyrium to Halicarnassus,
Æthusa to Myndus, Dromiscus and Perne to Miletus, Narthecusa to the promontory of Parthenium. Hybanda,
which was formerly an island of Ionia, is now 200 stadia
distant from the sea. Syries is now become a part of
Ephesus, and, in the same neighbourhood, Derasidas and Sophonia form part of Magnesia; while Epidaurus and Oricum
are no longer islands [Note].
