Name of a river.
Adler reports that ms. F has 'name of a place', but a river Salex in 'Liya' is mentioned by
Philostratus, Life of Apollonius of
Tyana 5.1 (a passage also quoted by
Photius); cf. under
alpha 46. The river in question is presumably the Zilis or Zilia (
Ptolemy 4.1.1), the present-day Oued el Kebir or Oued Khobs in Morocco; Barrington
Atlas map 28 grid C2.
There was also [NF] an unlocated river called the Saleantes, a branch of the Oxus;
Atlas map 6 Apparatus.
