ZICCHI(Ζικχοί, Arrian, Perip. P. Eux. p. 19), ZINCHI (Ζιγχοί, Ptol. 5.9.18), or ZINGI (Plin. vi 7. s. 7), a savage piratical tribe of Asiatic Sarmatia, on the coast of the Pontus Euxinus, between Sanigae and Achaei. They are called by Procopius Ζῆχοιand Ζῆκχοι ( B. Goth. 4.4, B. Pers. 2.29), and by Strabo, Ζυγοί (1. p. 129, xi. pp. 492, 495), if, indeed, he means the same people, as he places them in the interior on the Caucasus.
