5.23 CHAP. 23.—ISAURIA AND THE HOMONADES.

All the geographers have mentioned Pamphylia as joining up to Cilicia, without taking any notice of the people of Isauria [Note]. Its cities are, in the interior, Isaura [Note], Clibanus, and Lalasis; it runs down towards the sea by the side of Anemurium [Note] already mentioned. In a similar manner also, all who have treated of this subject have been ignorant of the existence of the nation of the Homonades bordering upon Isauria, and their town of Homona [Note] in the interior. There are forty-four other fortresses, which lie concealed amid rugged crags and valleys.
