Αthenaeus XI, p. 462, B:
Οἶδα δὲ καὶ Ἑλλάνικον ἐν ἐθνῶν ὀνομασίαις λέγοντα, ὅτι Λιβύων τῶν Νομάδων τινὲς οὐδὲν ἄλλο κέκτηνται, ἢ κύλικα καὶ μάχαιραν καὶ ὑδρίαν. Καὶ ὅτι οἰκίας ἔχουσιν ἐξ ἀνθερίκου πεποιημένας μικρὰς ὅσον σκιᾶς ἕνεκα, ἃς καὶ περιφέρουσιν, ὅπου ἂν πορεύωνται.
Memini etiam Hellanicum, in Gentium nominibus, tradere «Numidarum Libyae nonnullos nihil aliud in bonis habere, nisi calicem, et gladium, et hydriam: uti autem domunculis ex albuco (anthericon Graeci vocant) confectis exiguis, umbrae tantum captandae gratia; quas quocumque proficiscuntur circumferunt.»
