Mention by Pliny

Pliny mentions Troglodytice....We learn also from the same author that some nations of the Troglodytae have the name of Therothoæ²⁸, being so called from their skill in hunting. They are remarkable for their swiftness, he says, just as the Ichthyophagi are, who can swim like the animals whose element is the sea. He speaks also of the Bangeni, the Gangoræ, the Chalybes, the Xoxinæ, the Sirechæ, the Daremæ, and the Domazames.
