Updates Nov 29

1. In Epitome 1.7.20-23 Charybdis is mentioned 3 times but was only linked once as a place. While I realize the whirlpool is a place, in this context it is referring to the sea monster who was the daughter of Poseidon and Gaia. There wasn't yet a character in the xml file, so I've updated this and linked all three references to Charybdis as a character. 2. In Library Book 1, 1.8.3 the Curetes was linked to the group of the dancing attendants of Rhea. But in this context, I believe it is referring instead to a group of men from the Curetian country (1.7.6) aka Aetolus. 3. In Library Book 1, 1.8.5 Pisander was linked to the character xml. While there is a Pisander who fights at Troy, I belief this reference is to the scholar Pisander who wrote the epic Heracleia -- as the reference is "But Pisander says" not unlike the earlier reference of "but Phereydes says" (1.4.3).
