[And last of all, many generations
later, the people of the Siceli crossed over in a body from Italy into Sicily and made their home in
the land which had been abandoned by the Sicani. And since the Siceli steadily grew more
avaricious and kept ravaging the land which bordered on theirs, frequent wars arose between
them and the Sicani, until at last they struck covenants and set up boundaries of their
territory, upon which they had agreed. With regard to these matters we shall give a detailed
account in connection with the appropriate period of time.]Diod.
