Argos exported also horses,[1818] with purple garments,[1819] wild boars,[1820] caldrons,[1821] shields,[1822] and richly varied carbuncles,[1823] found in the neighbourhood of Trœzen;[1824] Sicyon, pictures,[1825] wine,[1826] and a peculiar kind of shoe which looked well with white socks or stockings;[1827] Elis, magnificent horses,[1828] whips,[1829] flax,[1830] poisons, iris unguent,[1831] centaury from the skirts of Mount Pholoë,[1832] nenuphar,[1833] which was found growing on the river Anygros, and sea-coal, used chiefly by smiths;[1834] Achaia mistletoe, parsley,[1835] headnets, all kinds of fine linen, manufactured at Patræ,[1836] and the Pellenian cloaks,[1837] which were proposed as prizes in certain games. Epidauros was remarkable for its noble breed of horses;[1838] Corinth, which was frequently supplied with corn from Epeiros, itself exported[1839] carpets, ladies’ summer mantles, linen tunics,[1840] articles of virtu in bronze and gold,[1841] and carbuncles variegated like those of Trœzen, with purple and white, but of a paler hue.[1842] Quinces[1843] of the richest colour and finest flavour, were found in this part of the isthmus; and probably pears which were found every where else in Peloponnesos. Corinthia abounded also with large and excellent turnips, which were no doubt exported to the neighbouring countries.[1844] ----- Footnote 1818: Strab. viii. 8. t. ii. p. 227. Footnote 1819: Plut.
