Άντε να τα συνδυάσουμε, ο Περσέας είδαμε τι λέει, ιδού και η πιστή Πηνελόπη:
18-But he constructed a huge protective wall (probolos) of hard stone of equal length with the circuit-wall, and caused this to check at that point the turbulence of the river when it rose, and so freed the wall entirely from harm from this source, even should the river rise to a great height in its most violent state. 19-He also found that portion of the city's circuit-wall which faces the north dangerously weakened by the passage of time; so he first took it down, along with the outworks, clear to the ground, and then rebuilt it, yet not as it had been before, for at that point the buildings of the city had been especially crowded, causing trouble to those who lived therehttp://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Roman/Texts/Procopius/Buildings/2*.html
