The Cicones are also referred to in the book of poems Metamorphoses by Ovid. They are mentioned in book VI when he writes of Boreas and Orithyia, when Ovid states: In classical times and in a historical context they go into obscurity. Non mythical instances of them occur in Herodotus (5th century BCE) as he writes of their land that Xerxes's army passed by. The tribe itself is thought to have disappeared early on.
