LANDS WHICH HAVE BEEN TOTALLY CHANGED INTO SEAS
Latine · Mayhoff 1906
in totum abstulit terras primum omnium ubi Atlanticum mare est, si Platoni credimus, inmenso spatio, mox interno quoque: videmus hodie mersam Acarnaniam Ambracio sinu, Achaiam Corinthio, Europam Asiamque Propontide et Ponto. ad hoc perrupit mare Leucada, Antirrhium, Hellespontum, Bosporos duos.
English · Bostock & Riley 1855–57
The sea has totally carried off certain lands, and first of all, if we are to believe Plato, for an immense space where the Atlantic ocean is now extended. More lately we see what has been produced by our inland sea; Acarnania has been overwhelmed by the Ambracian gulf, Achaia by the Corinthian, Europe and Asia by the Propontis and Pontus. And besides these, the sea has rent asunder Leucas, Antirrhium, the Hellespont, and the two Bosphori.
