SIMOIS

SIMOIS(Σιμόεις), a small river of Troas, having its source in Mount Ida, or more accurately in Mount Cotylus, which passed by Ilion, joined the Scamander below that city. This river is frequently spoken of in the Iliad, and described as a rapid mountain torrent. ( Il. 4.475, 5.774, 12.22, 21.308; comp. Aeschyl. Agam.692; Strab. 13. p. 597; Ptol. 5.2.3; Steph. B. s. v.;Pomp. Mela, i, 18; Plin. Nat. 5.33; and SCAMANDER) Its present name is Dumbreak Chai, and at present its course is so altered that it is no longer a tributary of the Scamander, but flows directly into the Hellespont.
