Discovery by Andi Zeneli Skandeia: Σκάνδεια, ἐπίνειον Κυθήρων, ὡς Παυσανίας τρίτῳ. ἡ δὲ τῶν Κῴων πόλις ἐκαλεῖτο τὸ παλαιὸν Ἀστυπάλαια, καὶ ᾠκεῖτο ἐν ἄλλῳ τόπῳ ὁμοίως ἐπὶ θαλάττῃ• ἔπειτα διὰ στάσιν μετῴκησαν εἰς τὴν νῦν πόλιν περὶ τὸ Σκανδάριον, καὶ μετωνόμασαν Κῶν ὁμωνύμως τῇ νήσῳ. ἡ μὲν οὖν πόλις οὐ μεγάλη, κάλλιστα δὲ πασῶν συνῳκισμένη καὶ ἰδέσθαι τοῖς καταπλέουσιν ἡδίστη. τῆς δὲ νήσου τὸ μέγεθος ὅσον πεντακοσίων σταδίων καὶ πεντήκοντα• εὔκαρπος δὲ πᾶσα, οἴνῳ δὲ καὶ ἀρίστη, καθάπερ Χίος καὶ Λέσβος• ἔχει δὲ πρὸς νότον μὲν ἄκραν τὸν Λακητῆρα (ἀφʼ οὗ ἑξήκοντα εἰς Νίσυρον), πρὸς δὲ τῷ Λακητῆρι χωρίον Ἁλίσαρνα, ἀπὸ δύσεως δὲ τὸ Δρέκανον καὶ κώμην καλουμένην Στομαλίμνην• τοῦτο μὲν οὖν ὅσον διακοσίους τῆς πόλεως διέχει σταδίους• ὁ δὲ Λακητὴρ προσλαμβάνει πέντε καὶ τριάκοντα τῷ μήκει τοῦ πλοῦ. ἐν δὲ τῷ προαστείῳ τὸ Ἀσκληπιεῖον ἔστι, σφόδρα ἔνδοξον καὶ πολλῶν ἀναθημάτων μεστόν, ἐν οἷς ἐστι καὶ ὁ Ἀπελλοῦ Ἀντίγονος. ἦν δὲ καὶ ἡ ἀναδυομένη Ἀφροδίτη, ἣ νῦν ἀνάκειται τῷ θεῷ Καίσαρι ἐν Ῥώμῃ, τοῦ Σεβαστοῦ ἀναθέντος τῷ πατρὶ τὴν ἀρχηγέτιν τοῦ γένους αὐτοῦ• φασὶ δὲ τοῖς Κῴοις ἀντὶ τῆς γραφῆς ἑκατὸν ταλάντων ἄφεσιν γενέσθαι τοῦ προσταχθέντος φόρου. φασὶ δʼ Ἱπποκράτην μάλιστα ἐκ τῶν ἐνταῦθα ἀνακειμένων θεραπειῶν γυμνάσασθαι τὰ περὶ τὰς διαίτας• οὗτός τε δή ἐστι τῶν ἐνδόξων Κῷος ἀνὴρ καὶ Σῖμος ὁ ἰατρός, Φιλητᾶς τε ποιητὴς ἅμα καὶ κριτικός, καὶ καθʼ ἡμᾶς Νικίας ὁ καὶ τυραννήσας Κῴων, καὶ Ἀρίστων ὁ ἀκροασάμενος τοῦ περιπατητικοῦ καὶ κληρονομήσας ἐκεῖνον• ἦν δὲ καὶ Θεόμνηστος ὁ ψάλτης ἐν ὀνόματι, ὃς καὶ ἀντεπολιτεύσατο τῷ Νικίᾳ. The city of the Coans was in ancient times called Astypalaea; and its people lived on another site, which was likewise on the sea. And then, on account of a sedition, they changed their abode to the present city, near Scandarium, and changed the name to Cos, the same as that of the island. Now the city is not large, but it is the most beautifully settled of all, and is most pleasing to behold as one sails from the high sea to its shore. The size* of the island is about five hundred and fifty stadia. It is everywhere well supplied with fruits, but like Chios and Lesbos it is best in respect to its wine. Towards the south it has a promontory, Laceter, whence the distance to Nisyros is sixty stadia (but near Laceter there is a place called Halisarna), and on the west it has Drecanum and a village called Stomalimne. Now Drecanum is about two hundred stadia distant from the city, but Laceter adds thirty-five stadia to the length of the voyage. In the suburb is the Asclepïeium, a temple exceedingly famous and full of numerous votive offerings, among which is the Antigonus of Apelles. And Aphrodite Anadyomene* used to be there,* but it is now dedicated to the deified Caesar in Rome, Augustus thus having dedicated to his father the female founder of his family. It is said that the Coans got a remission of one hundred talents of the appointed tribute in return for the painting. And it is said that the dietetics practised by Hippocrates were derived mostly from the cures recorded on the votive tablets there. He, then, is one of the famous men from Cos; and so is Simus the physician; as also Philetas, at the same time poet and critic; and, in my time, Nicias, who also reigned as tyrant over the Coans; and Ariston, the pupil and heir of the Peripatetic;* and Theomnestus, a renowned harper, who was a political opponent of Nicias, was a native of the island.
