Alternatively, according to Strabo, some placed the Arimoi at Catacecaumene,Strabo, 12.8.19. while Xanthus of Lydia (5th century BC) added that "a certain Arimus" ruled there.Strabo, 13.4.11. Strabo also tells us that for "some" Homer's "couch of Typhon" was located "in a wooded place, in the fertile land of Hyde", with Hyde being another name for Sardis (or its acropolis), and that Demetrius of Scepsis (2nd century BC) thought that the Arimoi were most plausibly located "in the Catacecaumene country in Mysia".Strabo, 13.4.6. For Hyde see also Homer, Iliad 20.386. The 3rd-century BC poet Lycophron placed the lair of Typhon's mate Echidna in this region.Lycophron, Alexandra 1351 ff. (pp. 606–607) associates Echidna's "dread bed" with a lake identified as Lake Gygaea or Koloe (modern Lake Marmara), see Robert, pp. 334 ff.; Lane Fox, pp. 290–291. For Lake Gygaea see Homer, Iliad 2.864–866; Herodotus, 1.93; Strabo, 13.4.5–6.
