τῆς Κιλικίας δὲ τῆς ἔξω τοῦ Ταύρου ἡ μὲν λέγεται τραχεῖα ἡ δὲ πεδιάς: τραχεῖα μέν, ἧς ἡ παραλία στενή ἐστι καὶ οὐδὲν ἢ σπανίως ἔχει τι χωρίον ἐπίπεδον, καὶ ἔτι ἧς ὑπέρκειται ὁ Ταῦρος οἰκούμενος κακῶς μέχρι καὶ τῶν προσβόρρων πλευρῶν τῶν περὶ Ἴσαυρα καὶ τοὺς Ὁμοναδέας μέχρι τῆς Πισιδίας: καλεῖται δ᾽ ἡ αὐτὴ καὶ Τραχειῶτις καὶ οἱ ἐνοικοῦντες Τραχειῶται: πεδιὰς δ᾽ ἡ ἀπὸ Σόλων καὶ Ταρσοῦ μέχρι Ἰσσοῦ, καὶ ἔτι ἧς ὑπέρκεινται κατὰ τὸ πρόσβορρον τοῦ Ταύρου πλευρὸν Καππάδοκες: αὕτη γὰρ ἡ χώρα τὸ πλέον πεδίων εὐπορεῖ καὶ χώρας ἀγαθῆς. ἐπεὶ δὲ τούτων τὰ μέν ἐστιν ἐντὸς τοῦ Ταύρου τὰ δ᾽ ἐκτός, περὶ μὲν τῶν ἐντὸς εἴρηται, περὶ δὲ τῶν ἐκτὸς λέγωμεν ἀπὸ τῶν Τραχειωτῶν ἀρξάμενοι.
