Hi Jim,

Strabo,  writes about the Boutones who are said to be under the
command of Marbod. (Strabo, Geogr.  IV, 1, 3) Zeuss proposed the
reading *Goutones).(Zeuss 1837, p.134) This reading later is generally
accepted. The section about the Goths is written after Germanicus'
victory year 16 AD but before Marbod was expelled, since this is not
mentioned.

Best
Ingemar
