STRABO III 4, 3: After this city (that of the Exitani) comes Abdera, likewise a Phoenician foundation. Above 〈these〉 places, in the mountainous country, a city called Odysseia is pointed out, together with a sanctuary of Athena within it, as Posidonius, Artemidorus (V), and Asclepiades of Myrlea (III) have said.
