Strabo makes the bay of Elaea terminate on one side in a point called Hydra, and on the other in a promontory Harmatus; and he estimates the width between these points at 80 stadia. Thucydides (viii. 101) places Harmatus opposite to Methymna, from which, and the rest of the narrative, it is clear that he fixes Harmatus in a different place from Strabo.
Strabo designates the bay of Elaea as terminating at a point called Hydra on one side and a promontory named Harmatus on the other, estimating the distance between these points to be 80 stadia. Thucydides (viii. 101) places Harmatus opposite Methymna, which, along with the rest of his account, suggests that he locates Harmatus in a different location than Strabo.
