The Sea route to India: Periplus Maris Erythraei 57

Classical Quarterly 34 (2):473-479 (1984)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

Chapter 57 of the Periplus Marts Erythraei is our sole source for a nugget of vital information: how westerners learned to sail over the open sea to India. Unfortunately, emendations distort the Greek in all editions1 and misconceptions the rendering in all translations.
