Nearchus, Polyaenus and the sea

Tim, thanks for this information. I just called the customer service number for Ares press and it has been disconnected, so it looks like they are out of business, meaning there is no point ordering from Amazon either. The copies of the Shepherd translation seem to be quite expensive, but I did find one facsimile edition for $50 and I have already placed an order for it. You will be welcome to borrow it after I've finished transcribing all the excerpts relative to Alexander - unless, of course, Smitty has already volunteered his copy. :-)Best regards,Linda Ann

Yes. Latin "Carae" is Greek "Karai"
Latin "Caria" is Greek "Karia"So, Shepherd is using the Latin spelling for the place.
