869 Steph. Byz. in Δειπνιὰς, with a fragment of Callimachus. The
connexion of Larissa and Delphi is proved by the ancient offering
mentioned by Pausan. X. 16. 4. It is not known whether Phyllus, with
its temple of Apollo Phyllæus, and Ichne, with a temple of Themis,
both towns in Thessaliotis, were situated on this road, Strabo IX.
p. 435.
870 Iliad. II. 766. cf. XXIII. 383 sqq. Πηρείη is mentioned as a place
of pasturage; and is cited by the Scholia to this passage, Stephanus
Byz. and Hesychius, as a place in Thessaly, but probably only from
this passage. In the Orphic Argonautics the pastures are placed on
the banks of the Amphryssus, which is near Pheræ.
871 Hesiod, Scut. 17, 58. Παγασίτης Ἀπόλλων παρὰ Ἀχαιοῖς ἐν Παγασαῖς καὶ
παρὰ θεσσαλοῖς, Hesychius. In Apollon. Rhod. I. 404, 411. the
Argonauts are represented as building a temple of Apollo Actius and
Embasius at Pagasæ.
872 Schol. Aristoph. Nub. 133. where for ἡλίου write Ἀπόλλωνος, a common
corruption, as both words were denoted by the same abbreviation. See
Gaisford ad Hesiod. Theog. 709.
873 Scut. 477. Eurip. Herc. Fur. 389. Compare _Orchomenos_, p. 251.
Cycnus dwelt ἐν παρόδῳ τῆς θαλασσίας, according to Stesichorus ap.
Schol. Pind. Olymp. X. 19. (Mus. Crit. vol. II. p. 266.) Schol. Il.
Ψ. 346. from the Cyclic poets, ἐν τῷ τοῦ Παγασαίου Ἀπόλλωνος ἱερῷ, ὅ
ἐστι πρὸς Τροιζῆνι, (read with Heinrich Τραχῖνι, see Scut. 469).
Pausanias places the battle on the Peneus, I. 27. 7. See also
Schellenberg’s Antimachus, p. 67.
874 Scut. Herc. ad fin.
875 It is fair to suppose that Stesichorus so far altered the fable as
to make Cycnus build _Apollo_ a temple of sculls; and it is not
necessary with Heyne ubi sup. to substitute Mars for Apollo. See
also Sturz ad Hellanic. Fragm. 121. p. 137.
876 Tzetzes ad Hesiod. Scut. p. 194. ed. Heins.
877 Chishull Antiq. Asiat. p. 134. Æginetica, p. 154. The coins of
Cnosus have the head of Apollo. The Omphalian plain near Cnosus
(Callim. Hymn. Jov. 45.) is connected with the stone of the Omphalos
at Delphi, but _both_ belong to the worship of Zeus.
878 Odyss. XIX. 188. Pausan. I. 18, 5. Strabo X. p. 476. See Boettiger’s
Ilithyia, p. 18. Einatus, whence Ilithyia Einatinè, was probably in
the neighbourhood.
879 Callim. Hymn. Apoll. 33. The geographical position of the places is
partly founded on the investigation in Hoeck’s Kreta, vol. I. ch. 1.
880 Steph. Byz. in Πύθιον. Its coins have on them the head of Apollo.
881 See book I. ch. 5. § 2.
882 The latter under the title of φυτία, with a festival named Ἐκδύσια,
Antonin. Liberal. 17. The wolf on its coins also refers to Apollo.
