The Geography of Strabo, Volume 2 (of 3) by Strabo
"The Geography of Strabo, Volume 2 (of 3)" by Strabo is an encyclopedia of geographical knowledge written in Greek in the late first century BC or early first century AD. This monumental work combines physical and political geography, making a "circuit of the earth" to detail landscapes, nations, cities, and strategic locations across the known world. Drawing from extensive travels and research in Rome and Alexandria's famous library, Strabo created a practical
guide for statesmen and educated citizens, focusing on what was "noble and great" and "practically useful, or memorable, or entertaining." (This is an automatically generated summary.)
