Translation
A xynoris, he says,1 was the term in the old days for two horses yoked at the necks. On the one there was a driver, and on the other a hoplite. And now they are used, on official duties, by the Alibyes, who are also called Zeugnitai.2 The same thing is also called a(/mippon . Thus Thucydides [uses the term].3
