摘要

托勒密的《地理概论》(约公元150年)包含了大量无价的地形信息。超过6000个地名甚至是由坐标定义的。然而，托勒密的城市经常被放错位置，或者在他的地图上出现不止一次。这一点在他对亚美尼亚(geogr)令人困惑的描述中尤为明显。5.13)，这使得一位现代学者称之为对他的工作和方法的“拙劣模仿”。本文旨在澄清托勒密所有坐标的基本错误，并对他的亚美尼亚地名提出一些解释和更正。

Armenia in Ptolemy’s Geography (ca. AD 150): A “Parody” of His Work? Some Corrections and Suggestions

Ptolemyʾs Geographike Hyphegesis (Introduction to Geography) (ca. AD 150) consists of a huge and invaluable stock of topographical information. More than 6,000 toponyms are even defined by coordinates. Nevertheless, Ptolemyʾs cities are often misplaced or pop up more than once in his maps. This is especially true with his confusing description of Armenia (geogr. 5.13), which caused a modern scholar to call it a ‘parody’ of his work and method. This paper aims at clarifying the basic error in all of Ptolemyʾs coordinates and proposes some explanations and corrections for his Armenian toponyms.
