[22] ᾿απὸ δὲ Σχεδίας ἀναπλέουσιν ἐπὶ Μέμφιν ἐν δεξιᾷ μέν εἰσι πάμπολλαι κῶμαι μέχρι τῆς Μαρείας λίμνης, ὧν ἐστι καὶ ἡ Χαβρίου κώμη καλουμένη: ἐπὶ δὲ τῷ ποταμῷ Ἑρμοῦ πόλις ἐστίν: εἶτα Γυναικῶν πόλις καὶ νομὸς Γυναικοπολίτης: ἐφεξῆς δὲ Μώμεμφις καὶ Μωμεμφίτης νομός: μεταξὺ δὲ διώρυγες πλείους εἰς τὴν Μαρεῶτιν. οἱ δὲ Μωμεμφῖται τὴν Ἀφροδίτην τιμῶσι, καὶ τρέφεται θήλεια βοῦς ἱερά, καθάπερ ἐν Μέμφει ὁ Ἆπις, ἐν Ἡλίου δὲ πόλει ὁ Μνεῦις: οὗτοι μὲν οὖν θεοὶ νομίζονται, οἱ δὲ παρὰ τοῖς ἄλλοις, παρὰ πολλοῖς γὰρ δὴ ἔν τε τῷ Δέλτα καὶ ἔξω αὐτοῦ τοῖς μὲν ἄρρην τοῖς δὲ θήλεια τρέφεται, οὗτοι δὲ θεοὶ μὲν οὐ νομίζονται ἱεροὶ δέ.
