[15] εἶτα Κνίδος δύο λιμένας ἔχουσα, ὧν τὸν ἕτερον κλειστὸν τριηρικὸν καὶ ναύσταθμον ναυσὶν εἴκοσι. πρόκειται δὲ νῆσος ἑπταστάδιός πως τὴν περίμετρον ὑψηλὴ θεατροειδὴς συναπτομένη χώμασι πρὸς τὴν ἤπειρον καὶ ποιοῦσα δίπολιν τρόπον τινὰ τὴν Κνίδον: πολὺ γὰρ αὐτῆς μέρος οἰκεῖ τὴν νῆσον σκεπάζουσαν ἀμφοτέρους τοὺς λιμένας. κατ᾽ αὐτὴν δ᾽ ἔστιν ἡ Νίσυρος πελαγία. ἄνδρες δ᾽ ἀξιόλογοι Κνίδιοι πρῶτον μὲν Εὔδοξος ὁ μαθηματικὸς τῶν Πλάτωνος ἑταίρων, εἶτ᾽ Ἀγαθαρχίδης ὁ ἐκ τῶν περιπάτων, ἀνὴρ συγγραφεύς, καθ᾽ ἡμᾶς δὲ Θεόπομπος, ὁ Καίσαρος τοῦ θεοῦ φίλος τῶν μέγα δυναμένων, καὶ υἱὸς Ἀρτεμίδωρος. ἐντεῦθεν δὲ καὶ Κτησίας ὁ ἰατρεύσας μὲν Ἀρταξέρξην, συγγράψας δὲ τὰ Ἀσσυρικὰ καὶ τὰ Περσικά. εἶτα μετὰ Κνίδον Κέραμος καὶ Βάργασα πολίχνια ὑπὲρ θαλάττης.
