an island of the Archipelago, a little to the north of the island of Santorino, 16 miles in circumference; but has no harbour. The mountains are nothing but bare rocks, and there are not springs sufficient to water the fields. There is a vast number of partridges, whose eggs they destroy every year to preserve the corn, and yet vast numbers of them are always produced. The ruins of the temple of Apollo are yet to be seen, and consist chiefly of marble columns.
