| #### CHAPTER 62 |

| #### #### The Medes had exactly the same equipment as the Persians; and indeed the dress common to both is not so much Persian as Median. They had for commander Tigranes, of the race of the Achaemenids. These Medes were called anciently by all people Arians; but when Media, the Colchian, came to them from Athens, they changed their name. Such is the account which they themselves give. #### The Cissians were equipped in the Persian fashion, except in one respect: they wore on their heads, instead of hats, fillets. Anaphes, the son of Otanes, commanded them. #### The Hyrcanians were likewise armed in the same way as the Persians. Their leader was Megapanus, the same who was afterwards satrap of Babylon. ####  |
