Where Aristeas who wrote this came from, I have already said; I will tell the story that I heard about him at Proconnesus and Cyzicus. It is said that this Aristeas, who was as well-born as any of his townsfolk, went into a fuller's shop at Proconnesus and there died; the owner shut his shop and went away to tell the dead man's reProconnesus and there died; the owner shut his shop and went away to tell the dead man's relatives,
and the report of Aristeas' death being spread about in the city was disputed by a man of Cyzicus, who had come from the town of Artace,A Milesian colony, the port of Cyzicus. and said that he had met Aristeas going toward Cyzicus and spoken with him. While he argued vehemently, the relatives of the dead man came to the felatives of the dead man came to the fuller's shop with all that was necessary for burial;
but when the place was opened, there was no Aristeas there, dead or alive. But in the seventh year after that, Aristeas appeared at Proconnesus and made that poem which the Greeks now call the Arimaspea, after which he vanished once again.
