Histories

Such was their armor. The Cyprians furnished a hundred and fifty ships; for their equipment, their princes wore turbans wrapped around their heads, and the people wore tunics, but in all else they were like the Greeks. These are their tribes:[*](That is, the entire population contains everywhere these component parts; they are not locally separate.) some are from Salamis [33.9,35.166] (deserted settlement), Famagusta, Cyprus, AsiaSalamis and Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens, some from +Arcadia [22.25,37.583] (department), Peloponnese, Greece, Europe Arcadia, some from Cythnus, some from Phoenice, and some from Ethiopia [39,8] (nation), AfricaEthiopia, as the Cyprians themselves say.

The Cilicians furnished a hundred ships. They also wore on their heads their native helmets, carried bucklers of raw oxhide for shields, and were clad in woollen tunics; each had two javelins and a sword very close in style to the knives of Egypt [30,27] (nation), Africa Egypt. These Cilicians were formerly called Hypachaei, and took their name from Cilix son of Agenor, a Phoenician.[*](Agenor appears to represent the Phoenician Baal.) The Pamphylians furnished a hundred ships: they were armed like the Greeks. These Pamphylians are descended from the Trojans of the diaspora who followed Amphilochus and Calchas.

The Lycians furnished fifty ships; they wore cuirasses and greaves, and carried cornel-wood bows and unfeathered arrows and javelins; goat-skins hung from their shoulders, and they wore on their heads caps crowned with feathers; they also had daggers and scimitars. The Lycians are from +Crete [25,35.166] (region), Greece, Europe Crete and were once called Termilae; they took their name from Lycus son of Pandion, an Athenian.
