60 ſtadia. From the mouth laſt mentioned to the fifth mouth 120 ſtadia. Arrian makes only five mouths to the Danube, but Pliny and Ptolemy reckon ſix. The names aſſigned by Pliny are, 1. Spireoſtoma; 2. Boreoſtoma; 3. Pſeudoſtoma; 4. Caloſtoma; 5. Naracoſtoma; 6. Peuce. . Pliny ſays, that the fifth mouth was ſo called, "a congelatis et ſtupidis piſcibus, quarum ibi magna copia "reperitur." The ſixth mouth is probably ſo called from the pine trees, which grow plentifully on all the ſides of the Euxine ſea; The names given by Ptolemy agree nearly with thoſe of Pliny.

Arrian makes this diſtance to be only 280 ſtadia, a wide difference from the computation of Ptolemy.

Arrowſmith's chart, and that of Laurie and Whittle, make only four mouths of the Danube; but Faden's map makes them to be five, one of them a branch of one of the other mouths, and
