ΑΚΡΙΑΙ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΕΛΟΣ
Akriai, Akreia, Akreia: Eth. Akriates. A town of Laconia, on the eastern
side of the Laconian bay, 30 stadia S. of Helos. Strabo describes the Eurotas
as flowing into the sea between Acriae and Gythium. Acriae possessed a sanctuary
and a statue of the mother of the gods, which was said by the inhabitants of the
town to be the most ancient in the Peloponnesus. Leake was unable to discover
any remains of Acriae; the French expedition place its ruins at the harbour of
Kokinio.
