Translation

It should be read paroxytone.¹ For the word is feminine, in the genitive case, compound. [sc. It is used here] because there are gold mines [on the mainland] opposite Thasos↗.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ἀντιπέρας· παροξυτόνως ἀναγνωστέον. ὄνομα γάρ ἐστι θηλυκὸν, γενικῆς πτώσεως, σύνθετον. ὅτι ἀντιπέρας Θάσου μέταλλά ἐστι χρυσοῦ.
