ἄλλοις δὲ εἰρημένον ἐστὶν ὡς προαποθανούσης οἱ τῆς γυναικὸς ἐπὶ τὸ Ἄορνον διʼ αὐτὴν τὸ ἐν τῇ Θεσπρωτίδι ἀφίκετο· εἶναι γὰρ πάλαι νεκυομαντεῖον αὐτόθι·

Construction: εἰρημένον ἐστίν is an impersonal passive, with ἄλλοις as the dative of reference; ὡς introduces the reported account. προαποθανούσης ... τῆς γυναικός is a genitive absolute, while οἱ is dative singular referring to the subject of ἀφίκετο. The second clause is an explanatory accusative-and-infinitive construction, with αὐτόθι as the predicate locative adverb.
