Histories

But this much they let me see for myself: there is a region between the +Dnepr (river), Europe Borysthenes and Hypanis rivers, whose name is Exampaeus; this is the land that I mentioned when I said that there is a spring of salt water in it, whose water makes the Hypanis unfit to drink.

In this region is a bronze vessel, as much as six times greater than the cauldron dedicated by Pausanias son of Cleombrotus at the entrance of the +Black Sea [38,42] (sea) Pontus.[*](Pausanias, the victor of Plataea [23.2667,38.2] (Perseus) Plataea, set up this cauldron in 477 B.C. to commemorate the taking of +Byzantium [28.95,41.0333] (Perseus) Byzantium.)
