[633] Σαρδόνιον πέλαγος: the Sardinian sea was properly that part of the Mediterranean W. and S. of Sardinia; here it is used loosely for the sea to the N.W. running up into the 'vast gulf,' the Sinus Gallicus, Gulf of Lyons, into which the Rhone discharges. Cf. Strab. 150, 51, κόλπος Γαλατικός, εἰς ὃν ἐξερεύγεται τὸ τοῦ Ῥοδανοῦ στόμα.
