τῆς δ᾽ Ἀρμενίας τὰ μὲν νότια προβέβληται τὸν Ταῦρον, διείργοντα αὐτὴν ἀφ᾽ ὅλης τῆς μεταξὺ Εὐφράτου καὶ τοῦ Τίγριος, ἣν Μεσοποταμίαν καλοῦσι, τὰ δὲ ἑωθινὰ τῇ Μηδίᾳ συνάπτει τῇ μεγάλῃ καὶ τῇ Ἀτροπατηνῇ: προσάρκτια δέ ἐστι τὰ ὑπερκείμενα τῆς Κασπίας θαλάττης ὄρη τὰ τοῦ Παραχοάθρα καὶ Ἀλβανοὶ καὶ Ἴβηρες καὶ ὁ Καύκασος ἐγκυκλούμενος τὰ ἔθνη ταῦτα καὶ συνάπτων τοῖς Ἀρμενίοις, συνάπτων δὲ καὶ τοῖς Μοσχικοῖς ὄρεσι καὶ Κολχικοῖς μέχρι τῶν καλουμένων Τιβαρανῶν: ἀπὸ δὲ τῆς ἑσπέρας ταῦτά ἐστι τὰ ἔθνη καὶ ὁ Παρυάδρης καὶ ὁ Σκυδίσης μέχρι τῆς μικρᾶς Ἀρμενίας καὶ τῆς τοῦ Εὐφράτου ποταμίας, ἣ διείργει τὴν Ἀρμενίαν ἀπὸ τῆς Καππαδοκίας καὶ τῆς Κομμαγηνῆς.
