The Geography of Strabo, Volume 2 continues the great geographical work of the ancient Greek scholar Strabo in a literal English translation with notes. This volume carries forward his survey of the regions of the known world, blending geography with history, ethnography, and accounts of the customs of the peoples he describes.
Strabo’s Geography is among the richest surviving sources for the lands and cultures of the Roman world, preserving descriptions otherwise lost. Drawing on travel and wide reading, he records cities, nations, and natural features across the Mediterranean and beyond. This second volume is essential for classicists, historians, and students of ancient ethnology, offering an indispensable window onto the human geography of antiquity.
