ΕΤΕΩΝΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΘΗΒΕΣ
Eteonos: Eth. Eteonios. A town of Boeotia, mentioned by Homer, who gives it the
epithet of poluknemos, lay to the right of the Asopus. Strabo says that it was
afterwards called Scarphe. It probably lay between Scolus and the frontier of
the territory of Tanagra.
ΠΑΝΑΚΤΟΝ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΘΗΒΕΣ
The position of these places cannot be fixed with certainty; but we
think Leake's opinion is, upon the whole, the most probable. Muller, Kiepert,
and others suppose the ruins of Ghyfto - kastro to be those of Panactum described
by Thucydides as a fortress of the Athenians, on the confines of Boeotia, which
was betrayed to the Boeotians in B.C. 420, and subsequently destroyed by them.
(Thuc. v. 3, 42; comp. Paus. i. 25. § 6; Dem. de Fals. Leg. p. 446; Steph. B.)
Leake places Panactum on the Boeotian side of the pass of Phyle; but Ross thinks
that he has discovered its ruins in the plain of Eleutherae, west of Skurta. Ross,
moreover, thinks that Eleutherae stood to the east of Ghyfto - kastro, near the
convent of St. Meletius, where are ruins of an ancient place; while other modern
writers suppose Eleutherae to have stood more to the west, near the modern village
of Kundara.

ΣΚΩΛΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΒΟΙΩΤΙΑ
Skolos. A town of Chalcidice near Olynthus, mentioned together with Spartolus,
in the treaty between Athens and Sparta in the tenth year of the Peloponnesian
War.
ΠΑΝΑΚΤΟΝ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΘΗΒΕΣ
(Panakton). A town on the frontiers of Attica and Boeotia, originally belonged to Boeotia, and after being a frequent object of contention between the Athenians and Boeotians, at length became permanently annexed to Attica.
A fort on the N flank of Mt. Kithairon on the frontier between Attica and Boiotia. It is usually placed near Kavasala, which is easily recognized by its mediaeval tower. The fort measures ca. 300 m around. Inside are the remains of two towers joined by a wall (6th c. ?). The fort dominates the Skourta plain, through which runs the road from Athens to Thebes by way of Phyle. Some scholars identify as Panakton the fortress popularly known as Bleutheres (Gyphtokastro), which should rather be placed at Kaza.

Σήμερα υποστηρίζεται από πολλούς η άποψη ότι το Φρούριο της Κάζας χτίστηκε από την αρχή σαν φρούριο (το Πάνακτον) και όχι σαν πόλη, δεν υπάρχουν όμως αδιαφιλονίκητες αποδείξεις γι' αυτό (Εκδ. Αθηνών, Παυσανίου Περιήγησις, τόμος 5, σελ.17, σημ.1).
