Open translation for this passage
τοῦτο μὲν πρὸς τὸν Λίβα σφίσιν ἐστὶν εὑρημένον· τὰς δὲ νησῖδας αἳ πρόκεινται τῆς χώρας ἀριθμὸν ἐννέα οὔσας Πέλοπος μὲν καλοῦσι,
The sentence has two coordinated clauses: τοῦτο is the subject of ἐστὶν εὑρημένον, while τὰς νησῖδας is the object of καλοῦσι; αἳ πρόκεινται τῆς χώρας is a relative clause, and ἀριθμὸν ἐννέα οὔσας is an accusative quantitative/appositional phrase modifying τὰς νησῖδας. The exact attachment of σφίσιν is somewhat uncertain.

τοῦτο δὲ εἰ τοιοῦτόν ἐστιν οὐκ οἶδα, ἔλεγον δὲ οἱ περὶ τὰ Μέθανα, ἐπεὶ χάλαζάν γε ἤδη θυσίαις εἶδον καὶ ἐπῳδαῖς ἀνθρώπους ἀποτρέποντας.
The second clause is coordinated with ἔλεγον; οἱ περὶ τὰ Μέθανα is the subject, with περὶ τὰ Μέθανα functioning substantivally as a local group designation. In the ἐπεί-clause, χάλαζάν is the object of εἶδον, while ἀνθρώπους ἀποτρέποντας is a participial predication (‘saw people turning away’), with θυσίαις and ἐπῳδαῖς instrumental means. The antecedent of τοιοῦτον is context-dependent.
