;XIV 75, p. 657 E: Strabo, a man not much younger, mentions them (that is, the pernae) in the third book of his Geography (4, 11); for in the seventh book of the same work he says that he knew Posidonius ... whom we have mentioned many times as having associated with Scipio, the conqueror of Carthage.

;XIV 75 p. 657 E : Strabon, homme qui n’est pas beaucoup plus récent, les mentionne, c’est-à-dire les pernes, dans le troisième livre de sa Géographie (4, 11) ; il dit en effet, dans le septième livre du même ouvrage, qu’il avait connu Posidonius ... que nous avons souvent mentionné et qui avait fréquenté Scipion, le conquérant de Carthage.
