EGIALOS (Ancient city) PAFLAGONIA
Writers question whom the poet means by "the Eneti," when he says, And the rugged heart of Pylaemenes led the Paphlagonians, from the land of the Eneti, whence the breed of wild mules; for at the present time, they say, there are no Eneti to be seen in Paphlagonia, though some say that there is a village on the Aegialus ten schoeni distant from Amastris.
