A DICTIONARY OF
GREEK AND ROMAN GEOGRAPHY.
BY VARIOUS WRITERS.

Illustrated with Coins, Plans of Cities, Districts and Battles,
&c.

EDITED BY WILLIAM SMITH, LL.D., Editor of the Dictionaries of
"Greek and Roman Antiquities," and of "Biography and Mythology."

Although for the sake of uniformity, it is called a Dictionary of
_Greek_ and _Roman_ Geography, it will be in reality a Dictionary
of _Ancient_ Geography, including even Scriptural Names. At
present there does not exist, either in the English or in the
German languages, any work on Ancient Geography sufficiently
comprehensive and accurate to satisfy the demands of modern
scholarship. And yet there are few subjects connected with
antiquity for which we have such ample materials. The discoveries
of modern travellers, as well as the researches of modern
scholars, have, within the last few years, added greatly to our
knowledge of Ancient Geography; and it will be the aim of the
Editor to present, in the present work, the results of their
labours in this important branch of Classical Antiquity.

The work will, of course, not be confined to a barren description
of the geography of countries and of the sites of places; but it
will also include an account of the political history, both of
countries and of cities. An attempt will likewise be made to
trace, as far as possible, the history of the more important
buildings of the cities, and to give an account of their present
condition, wherever they still exist.

"It is impossible to speak too highly of this stupendous
repository of historical information."--_John Bull._

"We should find it difficult to speak too highly of a vast labour
of this kind, so useful in the benefits it extends to others, so
modest in the praise it challenges for itself."--_Examiner._

"It is difficult to exaggerate the usefulness of a compilation
like this. To all public and official men, and to others engaged
in various branches of historical research, it will be a book of
constant reference."--_Morning Post._

"The 'Book of Dignities' will become a necessary volume in all
public offices, and will be found in most libraries a valuable
book of reference, in affording information of a kind not
elsewhere collected together, while it may be relied on as recent
and authentic."--_Literary Gazette._

INDIA IN GREECE, or TRUTH in MYTHOLOGY, by E. POCOCKE, Esq. This
work, containing the earliest History of Greece drawn from
original sources, treats of the Colonization of that Country from
North Western India; of the Buddhistic Propaganda, the Tartarian
Mission, and the Wars of the Grand Lama in Hellas. Corresponding
Maps of India and Greece, exhibit the exact parent tribes and
districts of the latter country--in Cashmir, Thibet, Tartary,
Afghanistan, and North Western India. This geographical basis
leads the way to a thorough revision of Early Hellenic History,
whereby the Cyclopes, Autochthones, Erectheus, Cecrops,
Corybantes, Cabeiri, and a long list of mythologic agents are at
once placed in the category of History. This work, equally adapted
to the general reader and the scholar, corroborates in the most
interesting way the Scriptural Accounts of the Hebrew Settlements
of the Children of Israel in Palestine, and demonstrates their
wars with the Tartar and Rajpoot tribes of that country.
