There seems to be some doobt whether then is any present representative of this place along the coast The only ph^co which now bears the name of Ormus is an isUuid off the mouth of the Anamis, to which it has been coi^ectnred by D'An- ▼ille that the inhabitants of the coast most hare fled shortly after the time of Timt&r. The modem his- toiy of this isUmd is well known. It was taken by Albaqnerque in 1507, and heM with great com- mercial prosperity by the Portngnese till Shah Abb^, aided by the English, took it from them in 1622. liVhile Ornum lifted, the Portugnese had an em- porium second to none but Goa. Shah Ahhis built on the opposite coast Bender'Abbassi^ and tried to win for it the commerce which Ormut had possessed. In this» however, he signally fiuled, and both places are now utterly mined and abandoned. (Vincent, Voy. o/Nearchm, voL I pp. S24->dS4.) [V.] UAROSHETU CAfH^cie), mentioned only in Judgei (ir. 2, 13, 16) as the royal garrison of Jabin king of Canaan. In all these passages it is called Uarosheth of the Gentiles, and was obviously situated in the northem part of Palestine, called *' Galilee of the nations." (/s. ix. 1.) It was probably situated In the tribe of Naphtali, between Kadesh Naphtali, and Hazor, the capital of Jabin [HazobJ. As the name signifies wi>d m the Aramaean, the fortress is supposed by some to have been situated in a woody district. The name is regarded as an appellative by the Chaldee panphrast, whose tzanslation for
- Harosheth of the Gentiles " is equivalent to " in
fortitndine (in munitione) arcium gentium.*' (Bosen- miiller in Jud. iv. 2.) [G. W.] HARPAGEIA (rd 'A/nrcrycMi}, a distnct between Priapus and Cyzicus, about the mouth of the river Granicus in Mysia, whence Ganymede is said to have been carried off. (Strab. xiii. p. 587.) Tbucydides (viii. 107) also mentions a town Harpagion, which is otherwise unknown. (Comp. Steph. B. ». v. 'Ap- wdyta.) [L. S.] HA'BPASA ('ApirfiMTa: Eth. 'Aptrw^^), a town in Caria, on the eastem bank of the river Harpasus, a tributary of the Maeander. (PtoL t. 2. § 19 ; Steph. B. s. v.; Plin. v. 29; Hierocl. p. 688.) The rains found opposite to NaJMy at a place called Arpas JTo- 2ssft, undoubtedly belong to Harpasa. (Fellowes, Ihicov, m Lgc. p. 51 ; Leake, Atia Minor, p^ 249 ; Bkhter, WaUfahrUi^ p. 540.) Plmy mentions a wonderful rock in its neighboiurhood, which moved on being pressed with a fioger, but did not yield to the pressure of the whde body. [L. S.] HA'RPASUS CApvflurof: Harpa), a river of Caria, flowing from south to north, and emptying itself into the Maeander. (Phn. v. 29; Steph. B. s. 9. *Apirao-a; Quint Smym. Potthom. x. 144.) In the war against Antiochus the Romans encamped on its banks. (Liv. xxxviiL 13.) [L. S.] HA'BPASUS C^^<»^<>* the reading %nrteyos, in Died. Sic ziv. 29, is faulty), a river which the Ten Thousand crossed (400 feet broad) from the territory of the Chalybes, who were separated from the Scythini by this river. (Xen. Anab. iv. 7. § 17.) This river, which has been identified by se- veml writers with the Arpa-Chdl^ a northern affluent 4>f the Anues, and forming the £. boundary of JCarf , is more probably represented by the Tchdruk- ^u {Jordk as Golooel Ghesney (^Exped. EupknU. HAURAN. 1031 vol. iL p. 231) and Mr. Grote {Hiit, ofGrtec^ vol ix. p. 161) suppose. [£. B. J.] HARPINA or HARPINNA CApirtMi,*A/nrurva : Eih, *Sfnti3nMi)^ a town of Pisatis (Ells) situated on the right bank of the Alphans, on the road to Heraea, at the distance of 20 stadia from the hippo- drome of Olympia. (Lucian, dt Mart Pertgr. 35.) Harpina is said to have been founded by Oenomaus, who gave it the name of his mother. The ruins of the town were seen by Pausanias. According to Strabo, Harpina stood upon the stream Partheniis; x/ according to Pausanias, upon one called Harpinnes. « The mins of the town stand upon a ridge a little northward of the village of Mirdka : there are two small rivulets on either side of the ridge, of which the eastem one appears to be the Partheniis, and <x/ the westem the Harpinates. (Stnib. viii. pp. 356, ' 357*; Pans. vi. 20. § 8; Steph. B. s. v.; Leake, MoreOf voL ii. p^ 211, Peiopotmaiacaj p. 218.) HARPIS FL. CA^^'t Ptol. iiL 10. § 14), a river of Samiatia Europsea, probably the same as the KugaXnik in Btstarahla, There was a peopki called the Harpii (*Apriot, PtoL iii. 10. § 13) in the district about this river. [£. B. J.] H ARPLEIA (^'ApwXcia), a place in Laconia upon the slopes (^ Mt. Taygetus, but at the mtrance of the plain. Leake places it at the village oi Xerokambi. (Paus. iii. 20. § 7; Leake, Peiopomteaiaca, p. 361.) HARUDES, a German tribe in the araiy of Ario- vistus in his war with Caesar, of whom 24,000 had crossed over into Gaul and established themselves there. (Gaes. S. &. L 31, 37, 51.) Some writers suppose that these Harades ars the same as the Charvdu (Xo^vSct) mentioned by Ptolemy (ii. 1 1. § 12) among the inhabitants of the Chersonesus Cimbrica. If this be admitted, the army of Ario- vistns would have consisted of tribes from the most distant parts of Germany, and its great numbers would cease to be matter of surprise. [SuEVi.] The Harades are also mendiMied in the Monumentnm Ancyranum. (Comp. Wersebe, Die VoUeer u. Vol- kerbundniue, p. 230.) [L. S.] HASSL In Pliny (iv. 1 7) some texts place alter the Belkyvaei, a people of Belgica, another people named Hassi, or, as some editions have it, Bassi. Harduin omits the name, and he does not say that any MS. has it D'Anvilie mentions a forest named ffaiZy or BeZj in a canton of the diocese of Beamvait^ or the country of the Bellovaci; and he would there- fore keep Hassi in Pliny's text [G. L.] HASTA. [AsTA.] HATERA, a station on the road from Dium to Beraea, 12 M. P. from the former (Peut. Tab. and identified with KaUrina, to the S. of Pydna. (Leake, Norihem Greece, vol. iii. p. 424.) [E.B.J.] HAURAN, AURAMFTIS (Abptuuns, *A€pa. vrrif), the name given by Josephus to the countzy called Itursea by St Luke (iii. 1), as is evident from the fact that, neither in his description of the te- tmrchy of Philip, nor elsewhere, does Josephus make any mention of Ituraea, but substitutes Au- ranitis. Thus he states that Auguitus granted Auranitis, together with Batanaea and Trschon to Herod the Great, on whose death he assigned them to Philip. (Ant xv. p. 10. § 1, xvii. 13. § 4; B, J. ii. 6. § 3.) It describes the great desert tract south of Damascus, still called the Haunm, and comprehended by Ptolemy under the names of
