Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Naulochus was an island, or rather reef, off the Sammonian promontory, in Crete described by ancient geographers (Plin. iv. 12), the same as the Naumachos of Pomponius Mela (ii. 7. § 13; Höck, Kreta, vol. i. p. 439.).Pomponius Mela, who wrote around AD 43, was the earliest Roman geographer. He was born in Tingentera (Algeciras) and died c 45 CE. His short work (De situ orbis libri III.) occupies less than one hundred pages of ordinary print. It is laconic in style and deficient in method, but of pure Latinity, and occasionally relieved by pleasing word-pictures. Excepting the geographical parts of Pliny's Historia naturalis (where Mela is cited as an important authority) the De situ orbis is the only formal treatise on the subject in Classical Latin.
