<blockquote>Tanais, a River of [[Tartaria Precopensis|Crim Tartary]], which divides [[Europe]] from [[Asia]]. Called by the Neighbouring Nations, Don; by the Italians, Tana. It ariseth in the Province of Rezan, in Moscovy (eleven hundred Miles from Moscow) from the Lake Iuvanouvo Lezicro, which is five hundred Wrests broad; and flowing with a very Oblique Course through the Countries possessed by the Precopensian, or Crim Tartars; not far from the Wolga falls into the Lake of Moeotis; near a City called from it Tanais, now ruined. This City was once taken by the Russ; but now in the hands of the Turks. The River divides it into two parts, and affords it the convenience of an Haven; though now not much frequented. Long. 60. 40. Lat. 48. 09.</blockquote><br />
