Westward of the river Triton and adjoining upon the Auseans, are other Libyans who till the ground, and live in houses: these people are named the Maxyans. They let the hair grow long on the right side of their heads and shave it close on the left; they besmear their bodies with red paint; and they say that they are descended from the men of Troy. Herodotus - The Histories, Book IV: 184
