Auch hier wird die Gegend, in der er beobachtet, als im Süd- osten des Erdkreises gelegen und ganz besonders heifs geschildert. Bei Michael Syrus (ed. Langlois p. 26. 27) heilst er Maniton. Bemerkenswert ist, dafs Fabricius (Cod. pseudoep. Vet. Test. I, 276) einen griechischen Text des Methodius hatte, in der Jonitus fiov-groov genannt wird, ebenso Leo Allatius in seiner Ausgabe des Eusthatius (In Hexaemeron Comm.) p. 236. Vgl. Chr. Alberici SS.
