TRIKOLONI (Ancient city) TRIKOLONES
Once Tricoloni also was a city, and even to-day there still remains on a
hill a sanctuary of Poseidon with a square image, and around the sanctuary stands
a grove of trees. These cities had as founders the sons of Lycaon; but Zoetia,
some fifteen stades from Tricoloni, not lying on the straight road but to the
left of Tricoloni, was founded, they say, by Zoeteus, the son of Tricolonus. Paroreus,
the younger of the sons of Tricolonus, also founded a city, in this case Paroria,
ten stades distant from Zoetia. To-day both towns are without inhabitants. In
Zoetia, however, there still remains a temple of Demeter and Artemis. There are
also other ruins of cities: of Thyraeum, fifteen stades from Paroria, and of Hypsus,
lying above the plain on a mountain which is also called Hypsus. The district
between Thyraeum and Hypsus is all mountainous and full of wild beasts. My narrative
has already pointed out that Thyraeus and Hypsus were sons of Lycaon.
