902 SAMULOCEXAE. sinii no present importance. Pliny (sxsvii. 67) makes mention of a gem which was found there; and in the Middle A^es its honey and goats are said to have been celebrated. No traveller .'ieems to have explored and described this island. [J.S.H.] SAMULOCEXAE, according to the Pent. Tab., or more correctly according to inscriptions found on the spot, SuJiLOCEN'NE, was ajiparently a Roman colony of some importance in the Agri Decumates of Germany. The Table erroneously places the town in Viudelicia, whence some antiquarians have re- g.irdeJ Samulocenae and Sumlocenne as two ditFerent places. But there can be no doubt that they are only two forms of the same name belonging to one town, the site of which is occupied by the modern Siilcheii, near Rottenburg on the Neckar, where many Koman remains, such as coins, inscriptions, and arms, have been found. (Comp. Jauinann, Colonia Sumlocenne, cf-c, Stuttgart, 1840, 8vo.; Leichtlen , Sf/««aie« unter den Roniern, p. 107, loll.) [L.S.] SAMUS. [Samos.] SAMUS, a river of Hispania Baetica. (Geog. Rav. iv. 45.) Ancient Spanisli coins indicate a town of the same name. (Florez, Med. iii. p. 142.) [T. H. D.] SAMYDACE (Sa^uSoKTj), a town on the coast of Carmania, noticed by Marcian (c. 28. ed. Didot) and Ptolemy (vi. 8. § 7). It appears to have been placed near the mouth of the river Samydacus. (See also Steph. B. s.v.) It is possible, as suggested by Forbiger, that the river is the same as the present Sadji [V.] SAXAUS {'S.avaos), a town of Phrygia, in the neighbourhood of Laodicei.a. (Strab. xii. p. 576; Hierocl. p. 666.) In the acts of the Council of Chalcedon (p. 674), it is called 'S.avaHv iroXis, and is probably mentioned by Ptolemy (v. 2. § 26) under the name of Sanis. [L. S.] SAXCTIO, a place in the Agri Decumates, in the south-west of Germany, was situated on the banks of the Rhine, but is mentioned only by Am- mianus JIarceUinus (xxi. 3), and in such a manner that it is not easy to identify its site; it is possible, liowever, that the modern SecJcinr/en may correspond with it. [L. S.] SAN DA, a river on the N. co.ast of Hispania Tar- raconensis (Plin. iv. 20. s. 34.) Probably the Mkra. [T. H. D.] SAXDA'LIUJI (Soj'SaA.ioj'), a mountain fortress of Pisidia, mentioned only by Strabo (xii. p. 169) and Stephanus B. (*-. »;.). [L. S.] SANDAXES {^av5dvf^, Perlpl. Mar. Erythr. c 52). There has been some question whether this is the name of a man or of a place. As the text stands in the Periplus, it would seem to be that of a ruler of the coast-district in the neighbourhood of Bombay. On the other hand, Ptolemy speaks of the same territory under the title of 'AptaKT) 'S.o.'Siviiiv ; whence Benfey (Ersch and Griiber, Encycl. art. Indien) argues, with strong probability, that the reading in the Periplus is incorrect, and that Ptolemy is right in making the name that of a people rather than of a chief. [V.] S.NDARACA (%a.i'Zapa.Kr]), a coast-town of Bithynia, at a distance of 90 stadia to the east of the river Osincs. (Arrian, I'tripl. P. E. p. 14 ; Anonvm. Peripl. P. E. p. 4.) [L. S.] SAXDOBAXES. [Albania, Vol. I. p. 89, b.] S.-VXDRIZETES, according to some editions of Pliny (iii. 28), the ::ame of a tribe in Pannonia on SANIAXA. the river Dravus; but a more correct reading gives the name Andizetes, which is no doubt the same as the Andizetii ('Ai/Sif^Tioi) mentioned by Strabo (vii. p. 314) amon2; the tribes of Pannonia. [L. S.] SAXE. 1. (2af7): Eth. Sai'ios, 2rji'o?os, 'S.avaios, Herod, vii. 22 ; Thuc. iv. 109 ; Steph. B. s. v.), a colony of Andros, situated upon the low, undulating ground, forming the isthmus which connects the peninsula of Acte with Chalcidice, through which the canal of Xerxes passed. Masses of stone and mortar, with here and there a large and squared block, and foundations of Hellenic walls, which are found upon this Provlaka or neck of land, mark the site of ancient Sane, which was within Acte and turned towards the sea of Euboea. (Leake, Northern Greece, vol. iii. p. 143.) 2. It appears from Herodotus (vii. 123; comp. Thuc. V. 18) and the Epitomiser of Strabo (vii. p. 330, Fr. 27), that there was another town of this name in Pallene. According to the position as- signed to it in the list of Herodotus, the site must be sought for between C. Posidhi and the W. side of the isthmus of Porta. Mela (ii. 3. § 1) is opposed to this position of Sane, as he places it near Canastraeum Prom. {C. Paliuri). [E. B. J.] SAXGALA (ra 2a77aa), a place mentioned by Arrian to the NW. of the Malli (or Mtdtdn), appa- rently near the junction of the Hydraotes and Ace- sines (v. 22). There can be little doubt that it is the same place as that noticed by Ptolemy under the name SayaXa rj Kal Ev8vfj.T]dia. (vi. 1. § 46). The position, however, of the latter is assigned with this difference, that it is placed below the junction of the Hydaspes and Acesines, whereas the former would seem to have been to the E. of the Hydraotes. Burnes has identified Sagala with the present Zn^07-e, which is probable enough (^Travels, vol. iii. p. 82). It may be remarked, that the EvdufxriSfa of Ptolemy ought in all probability to be Evdv5r]fj.ia, the name being derived from the well-known Bactrian king, Euthydemus. [V.] SAXGA'RIUS (^ayydpios : Sakarya or Sakari; Turki-sh Ayala), one of the principal rivers of Abia Minor, is mentioned in the Iliad (iii. 187, xvi. 719) and in Hesiod {Theog. 344). Its name appears in different forms as Sagraphos (Schol. ad Apollon. Rhod. ii. 724), Sang.aris (Constant. Porpliyr. i. 5), or S.'*- garis (Ov. ex'Pont. iv. 10. 17 ; Plin. vi. 1 ; Solin 43). This river had its sources on Mount Adoreus, near the town of Sangia in Phrygia, not far from the Galatian frontier (Strab. xii. p. 543), and flowed in a very tortuous course, first in ai; eastern, then in a northern, then in a north-western, and lastly again in a northern direction through Bithynia into the Euxine. In one part of its course it formed the boundary between Phrygia and Bithynia; and in early times Bithynia was bounded on the east by the S.angarius. [Bi- thynia.] The Bithynian part of the river was naviga- ble, and was celebrated from the abundance of fish found in it. Its principal tributaries were the Alander, Bathys, Thymbres, and G.allus.
