As a result of comparison of coordinate of populated area and geographic names, which were worked out by the author's method, with facts of archaeology and modern geographical state of this region were identified 18 stations from 24 having mentioned by Ptolemy with concrete stations or geographical names. The most part of not exactly identified points is in the archaeological regions, which are insufficiently learnt.
