'Eryx also is inhabited, a lofty hill, having a temple of Aphrodite that is held in great honour. In earleir times was full of ierodoules, who were dedicated in fulfilment of vows by the people of Sicily and by many outsiders.' From Strabo's Geography. Book 6:2(6).

Thank you Atlas for your comment. We've seen from your comments to many photos in Panoramio you must like Strabo and his Geography! We really appreciated your quotation.
Greetings from Sicily

Hello Mario and Ornella;
Stravon of Amasia is really one of the greatest writers and brightest minds ever. However, very many other ancient writers are as great and bright, among them Diodoros of Sicily. Greetings from Florida.
