About “Periplus of Pseudo-Scylax”
The Periplus of Pseudo-Scylax is an ancient Greek text that outlines a sea route around the Mediterranean and Black Sea. It likely dates from the mid-4th century BC, specifically the 330s, and was probably composed in or near Athens. The work is attributed to a figure often classified as a 'minor' Greek geographer. Only one manuscript of the text exists, and it was created more than 1500 years after the original work was written. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
