[1110] λιμένα Θρηίκιον: Hasluck (op. cit. 5) explains this as the port patronized by the traders from Byzantium and the Thracian ports, comparing the Egyptian harbour at Tyre (Strab. 787) and Aristides' allotment of the three harbours at Rhodes (i 797 Dind.). The Schol. guesses at the meaning: λιμένα δὲ Θρηίκιον λέγει ἐπειδὴ κεῖται μὲν Κύζικος ἐπ᾽ ἐσχάτοις τῆς Φρυγίας, συνάπτει δὲ Βιθυνία τῇ Φρυγίᾳ, Βιθυνοὶ δὲ Θρᾷκες κατὰ τὸ δεξιὸν μέρος. ἐπειδὴ Θρᾷκες Κύζικον ᾤκησαν.
