《Tetrabiblos》The PlanetsClaudius Ptolemy（Ashmand 英譯 1822）
These females, like the Amazons, shun the addresses of men, and delight in the use of arms, and in manly occupations: they also amputate the right breasts of their female children for the sake of adapting them to military service, and in order that, when in combat and exposing that part of their body, they may appear to be of the male sex.
