At Bibliotheca 2.4.5 the two names for the inhabitants of Taphos are attributed to the fact that Taphius founded the island and named the people Teleboans because he had "gone far from his homeland" (τηλοῦ τῆς πατρίδος ἔβη), the adverb τηλοῦ, tēloû, being combined with the verb translated here as "gone", ἔβη, ébē.
