  • Ἀμύνταν δὲ καὶ Φιλώταν καὶ Κοῖνον τὴν ἄλλην στρατιὰν ὡς ἐπὶ τὸ πεδίον ἄγειν καὶ τὸν ποταμόν, ὃν ἐχρῆν περᾶσαι ἐόντα ἐπὶ Πέρσας, γεφυροῦν ἐκέλευσεν: (Arrian, Anabasis, book 3, chapter 18 6:1)
  • ἐπὶ τούτων ὦν τῶν καταλεχθέντων ἐθνέων τοὺς βασιλέας ἁλισμένους ἀπικόμενος τῶν Σκυθέων οἱ ἄγγελοι ἔλεγον ἐκδιδάσκοντες ὡς ὁ Πέρσης, ἐπειδή οἱ τὰ ἐν τῇ ἠπείρῳ τῇ ἑτέρῃ πάντα κατέστραπται, γέφυραν ζεύξας ἐπὶ τῷ αὐχένι τοῦ Βοσπόρου διαβέβηκε ἐς τήνδε τὴν ἤπειρον, διαβὰς δὲ καὶ καταστρεψάμενος Θρήικας γεφυροῖ ποταμὸν Ἴστρον, βουλόμενος καὶ τάδε πάντα ὑπ ἑωυτῷ ποιήσασθαι. (Herodotus, The Histories, book 4, chapter 118 2:1)
  • Δεδιότος δὲ τοῦ στρατοῦ τὴν διάβασιν, μέγας γὰρ ἦν ὁ ποταμὸς τῷ ῥεύματι καὶ οὔτε γεφύραις πορευτός, οὐ γὰρ ἔζευκτο τὸ πρότερον, βουλομένους τε γεφυροῦν οὐχ ἕξειν σχολὴν παρὰ τῶν πολεμίων ὑπελάμβανον πορθμείων τε μὴ τυγχανόντων, διαβατὸν αὐτοῖς ὁ θεὸς ἐπαγγέλλεται ποιήσειν τὸν ποταμὸν μειώσας αὐτοῦ τὸ πλῆθος. (Flavius Josephus, Antiquitates Judaicae, Book 5 20:1)
