ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΙΑ (Αρχαία περιοχή) ΕΛΛΑΔΑ
Stymphalis a district annexed by the Romans, along with Atintania
and Elimiotis, to Macedonia upon the conquest of this kingdom, A.D. 168. (Liv.
xlv. 30.) From the mention of this district along with Atintania and Elimiotis,
which were portions of Epeirus upon the borders of Thessaly, it would appear that
Stymphalis is only another form of the more common name Tymphalis or Tymphaea;
though, it is true, as Cramer has observed, that Diodorus has mentioned Stymphalia
(Diod. xx. 28), and Callimachus speaks of the Stymphalian oxen in that territory
(Hymn. in Dian. 179). Ptolemy (iii. 13. § 43) likewise mentions a town Gyrtona
in Stymphalia, but in this passage other MSS. read Tymphalia. (Cramer, Ancient
Greece, vol. i. p. 198.)

Stymbara (Stumbara, Strab. vii. p. 327; Stuberrha, Polyb. xxviii. 8. § 8; Stubera,
Liv. xxxi. 39, xliii. 20, 22), a town on the frontier of regal Macedonia, which
is by some assigned to Deuriopus, and by others to Pelagonia, which in the campaign
of B.C. 400 was the third encampment of the consul Sulpicius; it must be looked
for in the basin of the Erigon. (Leake, Northern Greece, vol. iii. p. 306.)
