[13] μετὰ δὲ Σαλγανέα Ἀνθηδὼν πόλις λιμένα ἔχουσα, ἐσχάτη τῆς Βοιωτιακῆς παραλίας τῆς πρὸς Εὐβοίᾳ, καθάπερ καὶ ὁ ποιητὴς εἴρηκεν ‘Ἀνθηδόνα τ᾽ ἐσχατόωσαν.’ εἰσὶ μέντοι ἔτι προϊόντι μικρὸν πολίχναι δύο τῶν Βοιωτῶν, Λάρυμνά τε, παρ᾽ ἣν ὁ Κηφισσὸς ἐκδίδωσι, καὶ ἔτι ἐπέκεινα Ἁλαί, ὁμώνυμοι τοῖς Ἀττικοῖς δήμοις. κατὰ δὲ τὴν παραλίαν ταύτην κεῖσθαί φασιν Αἰγὰς τὰς ἐν Εὐβοίᾳ, ἐν αἷς τὸ τοῦ Ποσειδῶνος ἱερὸν τοῦ Αἰγαίου: ἐμνήσθημεν δ᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ πρότερον. δίαρμα δ᾽ ἐστὶν ἀπὸ μὲν τῆς Ἀνθηδόνος εἰς Αἰγὰς ἑκατὸν εἴκοσι στάδιοι, ἀπὸ δὲ τῶν ἄλλων τόπων πολὺ ἐλάττους: κεῖται δ᾽ ἐπὶ ὄρους ὑψηλοῦ τὸ ἱερόν, ἦν δέ ποτε καὶ πόλις: ἐγγὺς δὲ τῶν Αἰγῶν καὶ αἱ Ὀρόβιαι. ἐν δὲ τῇ Ἀνθηδονίᾳ Μεσσάπιον ὄρος ἐστὶν ἀπὸ Μεσσάπου, ὃς εἰς τὴν Ἰαπυγίαν ἐλθὼν Μεσσαπίαν τὴν χώραν ἐκάλεσεν. ἐνταῦθα δὲ καὶ τὰ περὶ τὸν Γλαῦκον μυθεύεται τὸν Ἀνθηδόνιον, ὅν φασιν εἰς κῆτος μεταβαλεῖν.
