ΣΑΜΙΚΟΝ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΗΛΕΙΑ
One poem entitled Rhadine (of which Stesichorus is reputed to
be the author), which begins, "Come, thou clear-voiced Muse, Erato, begin thy
song, voicing to the tune of thy lovely lyre the strain of the children of Samus,"
refers to the children of the Samus in question; for Rhadine, who had been betrothed
to a tyrant of Corinth, the author says, set sail from Samus (not meaning, of
course, the Ionian Samus) while the west wind was blowing, and with the same wind
her brother, he adds, went to Delphi as chief of an embassy; and her cousin, who
was in love with her, set out for Corinth in his chariot to visit her. And the
tyrant killed them both and sent their bodies away on a chariot, but repented,
recalled the chariot, and buried their bodies.
Anigrides, the nymphs of the river Anigrus in Elis. On the coast of Elis, not far from the mouth of the river, there was a grotto sacred to them, which was visited by persons afflicted with cutaneous diseases. They were cured here by prayers and sacrifices to the nymphs, and by bathing in the river. (Paus. v. 5. 6; Strab. viii. Eustath. ad Hom.)
