Strabo's Libya is a purely scholarly work, drawn from literary sources and, to a small extent, from information to be had in Rome and the Roman Empire, such as the death of Juba II, king of Mauretania, in CE 23 or 24. Strabo's Libya, covering a number of different periods, is nevertheless a work with a scientific approach that excludes fiction. And yet,

The Classical Quarterly, 1956
In a recent paper I discussed the origin of the concept of the climata in Greek geography, and adduced reasons for attributing the formulation and elaboration of the concept to Hipparchus (fl. 150 B.C.). The above passage in Strabo was naturally mentioned in the course of the argument, and I drew attention in a footnote to the unsatisfactory nature of ...

Since I shall not turn to the Geography as a complete project until chapter VI, a very brief introduction of Strabo and his ...

Scholarship on Strabo’s Geography has long noticed that the procedure adopted by the author in his account of India is inconsistent with the method he follows elsewhere (Puskás 1993). On the one hand, it has been argued that, while describing the subcontinent, the author quotes so extensively from his sources that he allows practically no space for his
