Proper name: ABI'STAMENES was appointed governor of Cappadocia by Alexander the Great. (Curt. iii. 4.) He is called Sabictas by Arrian. (Anab. ii. 4.) Gronovius conjectures that instead of Abistamene Cappadociae praeposito, we ought to read Abicta magnae Cappadociae, &c. (Wikisource | public domain)
