- "The people E. of the Tanaïs were not of sufficient importance in ancient history to require specific mention."
- "Unworthy of mention are those writers who have stated that the Tanaïs rises in the regions on the Iste and flows from the west, because they have not reflected that the Tyras, the Borysthenes, and the Hypanis, all large rivers flow between those two rivers into the Pontus, one of them parallel to the Ister and the others parallel to the Tanaïs."
- "By conflating names of various lakes and rivers so as to redefine the course of the Tanaïs, these accounts play with the imaginary boundaries between Asia and Europe."
