The classical Greeks were no strangers to cartography. Their knowledge of geography was sufficiently advanced to negate any idea in our minds that they should conceive of Sicily as being huge. Consequently the sentence hosting this gross error is being removed from the article. (Weirpwoer 23:16, 29 August 2007 (UTC)).[reply]

it is more likely that the name Thrinacia would have come about because sailors could use it to easily identify an island as they could see it

I don't understand this. Does anyone? Andrew Dalby 20:10, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

the island of sicily has 3 capes , or points , it is said the all three capes look alike no matter what side of the island you were on some ancient greek sailors thought that the island could spin around to keep them from falling off the pillars of Hercules

I think that Trinacia would be better connected to the island of Rhodes. Etymology suggests that Rhode(s) is synonomus with "Rose" or "field of Roses", etc. There even existed a nymph called "Rhode!"69.92.23.64 (talk) 19:57, 25 February 2009 (UTC)Ronald L. Hughes[reply]
