The Loeb Editor's Notes, 28 Nova Epirus or Illyris Graeca (Epirus, Nova Illyria Graeca) "Nova Epirus or Illyris Graeca extended from the Drilo (Mod. Drina) River on the north to the Ceraunian Mts. on the south, thus comprising a large part of modern Albania. Immediately to the south of it to the Ambracian Gulf (Mod. Gulf of Arta) lay what is here called Old Epirus, approximately identical with the Epirus of modern Greece."
