Open translation for this passage
αὕτη μὲν ἐπὶ Μεσσήνην, ἑτέρα δὲ ὁδὸς ἐκ Μεγάλης πόλεως ἐπὶ Καρνάσιον ἄγει τὸ Μεσσηνίων·
Coordinated elliptical clause: αὕτη refers to an omitted ὁδός and has an understood ἄγει; ἑτέρα ὁδός is the overt subject of ἄγει. The final τὸ Μεσσηνίων is treated as an elliptical accusative destination/goal phrase, probably with an omitted noun such as χωρίον; its syntax is uncertain.

καὶ ταύτῃ πρῶτα μέν σε ὁ Ἀλφειὸς ἐκδέξεται, καθότι καὶ Μαλοῦς καὶ ὁ Σκῦρος ἐς αὐτὸν κατέρχονται προανακοινωσάμενοι τὸ ῥεῦμα.
The καθότι clause explains ἐκδέξεται; Μαλοῦς and Σκῦρος are coordinated river subjects, and προανακοινωσάμενοι is a same-subject aorist middle participle.
