Nevertheless we then proceeded, by means of an alliance, to detach Boeotia and Corinth from Sparta, and to resume friendly relations with Argos, thereby involving Sparta in the battle of Corinth.
ΝΕΜΕΑ (Αρχαίο ιερό) ΚΟΡΙΝΘΙΑ
The battle took place along the river Nemea,1 lasting until nightfall, and parts of both armies had the advantage, but of the Lacedaemonians and their allies eleven hundred men fell, while of the Boeotians and their allies about twenty-eight hundred.
ΙΣΘΜΟΣ ΚΟΡΙΝΘΟΥ (Ισθμός) ΛΟΥΤΡΑΚΙ ΠΕΡΑΧΩΡΑΣ
That very night the land army of the barbarians began marching to
the Peloponnese. Yet every possible device had been used to prevent the barbarians
from invading by the mainland. As soon as the Peloponnesians learned that Leonidas
and his men at Thermopylae were dead, they ran together from their cities and
took up their position at the Isthmus. Their general was Cleombrotus son of Anaxandrides,
the brother of Leonidas. When they were in position at the Isthmus, they demolished
the Scironian road and then, after resolving in council, built a wall across the
Isthmus. Since there were many tens of thousands and everyone worked, the task
was completed, as they brought in stones and bricks and logs and baskets full
of sand. At no moment of the day or night did those who had marched out there
rest from their work.
These were the Hellenes who marched out in a body to the Isthmus:
the Lacedaemonians and all the Arcadians, the Eleans and Corinthians and Sicyonians
and Epidaurians and Phliasians and Troezenians and Hermioneans. These were the
ones who marched out and feared for Hellas in her peril. The rest of the Peloponnesians
cared nothing, though the Olympian and Carnean festivals were now past...
... Those at the Isthmus were involved in so great a labor, since all they had
was at stake and they did not expect the ships (at Salamis)to win distinction.

These were the allies of Lacedaemon: all the Peloponnesians within the Isthmus except the Argives and Achaeans, who were neutral; Pellene being the only Achaean city that first joined in the war, though her example was afterwards followed by the rest. Outside Peloponnese the Megarians, Locrians, Boeotians, Phocians, Ambraciots, Leucadians, and Anactorians.
ΚΟΡΙΝΘΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΠΕΛΟΠΟΝΝΗΣΟΣ
So the Epidamnians went to Corinth, and delivered over the colony in obedience to the commands of the oracle. They showed that their founder came from Corinth, and revealed the answer of the god; and they begged them not to allow them to perish, but to assist them.This the Corinthians consented to do. Believing the colony to belong as much to themselves as to the Corcyraeans, they felt it to be a kind of duty to undertake their protection. Besides, they hated the Corcyraeans for their contempt of the mother country. Instead of meeting with the usual honors accorded to the parent city by every other colony at public assemblies, such as precedence at sacrifices, Corinth found herself treated with contempt by a power, which in point of wealth could stand comparison with any even of the richest communities in Hellas, which possessed great military strength, and which sometimes could not repress a pride in the high naval position of an island whose nautical renown dated from the days of its old inhabitants, the Phaeacians. This was one reason of the care that they lavished on their fleet, which became very efficient; indeed they began the war with a force of a hundred and twenty galleys (Thuc. 1.25.2-4).

Planted on an isthmus, Corinth had from time out of mind been a commercial emporium;
as formerly almost all communication between the Hellenes within and without Peloponnese
was carried on overland, and the Corinthian territory was the highway through
which it travelled. She had consequently great money resources, as is shown by
the epithet "wealthy" bestowed by the old poets on the place, and this
enabled her, when traffic by sea became more common, to procure her navy and put
down piracy; and as she could offer a mart for both branches of the trade, she
acquired for herself all the power which a large revenue affords.

ΣΟΛΥΓΕΙΑ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΣΑΡΩΝΙΚΟΣ
Ο Θουκυδίδης αναφέρει τη Σολύγεια ως μικρό χωριό των Κορινθίων, στο οποίο αποβιβάστηκαν οι Αθηναίοι κατά τη διάρκεια μιας εκστρατείας τους κατά της Κορίνθου (Θουκ. 4,42,2).
ΙΣΘΜΟΣ ΚΟΡΙΝΘΟΥ (Ισθμός) ΛΟΥΤΡΑΚΙ ΠΕΡΑΧΩΡΑΣ
The Corinthian Isthmus stretches on the one hand to the sea at Cenchreae, and on the other to the sea at Lechaeum. For this is what makes the region to the south mainland. He who tried to make the Peloponnesus an island gave up before digging through the Isthmus. Where they began to dig is still to be seen, but into the rock they did not advance at all. So it still is mainland as its nature is to be. Alexander the son of Philip wished to dig through Mimas, and his attempt to do this was his only unsuccessful project. The Cnidians began to dig through their isthmus, but the Pythian priestess stopped them. So difficult it is for man to alter by violence what Heaven has made.
ΚΟΡΙΝΘΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΠΕΛΟΠΟΝΝΗΣΟΣ
Οι Λακεδαιμόνιοι αποφάσισαν να εκστρατεύσουν κατά του Αρταξέρξη και ζήτησαν συμμετοχή και βοήθεια από τους υπόλοιπους Ελληνες, πλην του Αργους. Ο Παυσανίας αναφέρει ότι οι Κορίνθιοι ήθελαν να συμμετάσχουν, όμως εκείνη την περίοδο κάηκε ο Ναός του Ολύμπιου Δία και το θεώρησαν κακό σημάδι (Παυσ. 3,9,1-2).
ΟΡΝΕΙΑΙ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΝΕΜΕΑ
The distance from Argos to Lyrcea is about sixty stades, and the distance
from Lyrcea to Orneae is the same. Homer in the Catalogue makes no mention of
the city Lyrcea, because at the time of the Greek expedition against Troy it already
lay deserted; Omeae, however, was inhabited, and in his poem he places it1 on
the list before Phlius and Sicyon, which order corresponds to the position of
the towns in the Argive territory.
The name is derived from Orneus, the son of Erechtheus. This Orneus
begat Peteos, and Peteos begat Menestheus, who, with a body of Athenians, helped
Agamemnon to destroy the kingdom of Priam. From him then did Omeae get its name,
and afterwards the Argives removed all its citizens, who thereupon came to live
at Argos. At Orneae are a sanctuary and an upright wooden image of Artemis; there
is besides a temple devoted to all the gods in common. On the further side of
Orneae are Sicyonia and Phliasia. (2.25.5-6)
ΑΚΡΟΚΟΡΙΝΘΟΣ (Κάστρο) ΚΟΡΙΝΘΟΣ
The situation of the city (of Corinth),
as described by Hieronymus and Eudoxus and others, and from what I myself saw
after the recent restoration of the city by the Romans, is about as follows: A
lofty mountain with a perpendicular height of three stadia and one half, and an
ascent of as much as thirty stadia, ends in a sharp peak; it is called Acrocorinthus,
and its northern side is the steepest; and beneath it lies the city in a level,
trapezium-shaped place close to the very base of the Acrocorinthus. Now the circuit
of the city itself used to be as much as forty stadia, and all of it that was
unprotected by the mountain was enclosed by a wall; and even the mountain itself,
the Acrocorinthus, used to be comprehended within the circuit of this wall wherever
wall-building was possible, and when I went up the mountain the ruins of the encircling
wall were plainly visible. And so the whole perimeter amounted to about eighty-five
stadia. On its other sides the mountain is less steep, though here too it rises
to a considerable height and is conspicuous all round. Now the summit has a small
temple of Aphrodite; and below the summit is the spring Peirene, which, although
it has no overflow, is always full of transparent, potable water. And they say
that the spring at the base of the mountain is the joint result of pressure from
this and other subterranean veins of water--a spring which flows out into the
city in such quantity that it affords a fairly large supply of water. And there
is a good supply of wells throughout the city, as also, they say, on the Acrocorinthus;
but I myself did not see the latter wells. At any rate, when Euripides says,
"I am come, having left Acrocorinthus that is washed on all
sides, the sacred hill-city of Aphrodite,"
one should take "washed on all sides" as meaning in the depths of the mountain,
since wells and subterranean pools extend through it, or else should assume that
in early times Peirene was wont to rise over the surface and flow down the sides
of the mountain. And here, they say, Pegasus, a winged horse which sprang from
the neck of the Gorgon Medusa when her head was cut off, was caught while drinking
by Bellerophon. And the same horse, it is said, caused Hippu-crene to spring up
on Helicon when he struck
with his hoof the rock that lay below that mountain. And at the foot of Peirene
is the Sisypheium, which preserves no inconsiderable ruins of a certain temple,
or royal palace, made of white marble. And from the summit, looking towards the
north, one can view Parnassus
and Helicon--lofty, snow-clad
mountains--and the Crisaean
Gulf, which lies at the foot of the two mountains and is surrounded by Phocis,
Boeotia, and Megaris,
and by the parts of Corinthia
and Sicyonia which lie across
the gulf opposite to Phocis,
that is, towards the west. And above all these countries lie the Oneian Mountains,
as they are called, which extend as far as Boeotia
and Cithaeron from the Sceironian
Rocks, that is, from the road that leads along these rocks towards Attica.(Strabo
8.6.21)
ΑΣΩΠΙΑ (Αρχαία περιοχή) ΣΙΚΥΩΝ
Την αναφέρει ως χώρα της Σικυώνας, απ' όπου περνάει ο Ασωπός (Στράβων 9,2,23).
ΒΕΜΒΙΝΑ (Αρχαία κωμόπολη) ΝΕΜΕΑ
Την αναφέρει ως χωριό ανάμεσα στο Φλιούντα και τις Κλεωνές (Στράβ. 8,6,19).
ΚΕΓΧΡΕΑΙ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΚΟΡΙΝΘΟΣ
The beginning of the seaboard on the two sides (of Corinth)
is, on the one side, Lechaeum,
and, on the other, Cenchreae,
a village and a harbor distant about seventy stadia from Corinth.
Now this latter they use for the trade from Asia, but Lechaeum
for that from Italy. Lechaeum
lies beneath the city, and does not contain many residences; but long walls about
twelve stadia in length have been built on both sides of the road that leads to
Lechaeum. The shore that
extends from here to Pagae
in Megaris is washed by the
Corinthian Gulf; it is concave,
and with the shore on the other side, at Schoenus,
which is near Cenchreae,
it forms the "Diolcus.(Strabo 8.6.22)
ΚΛΕΩΝΑΙ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΝΕΜΕΑ
Ο Στράβων δεν πήγε στην πόλη, την είδε από τον Ακροκόρινθο. Την περιγράφει σαν μικρή πόλη στο δρόμο Αργους- Κορίνθου (Στράβων 8,6,19).
ΚΟΡΙΝΘΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΠΕΛΟΠΟΝΝΗΣΟΣ
Ο Στράβων αναφέρει οτι η πόλη της Κορίνθου ήταν πάντα μεγάλη και πλούσια και διέθετε πολλούς ικανούς πολιτικούς και καλλιτέχνες . Εκεί, όπως και στη Σικυώνα, άνθιζαν οι τέχνες. Το έδαφος της Κορίνθου το περιγράφει ως "τραχύ και βραχώδες", παραθέτει μάλιστα και μια σχετική παροιμία (Στρ. 8,6,20).
The Corinthians, when they were subject to Philip, not only sided with him in
his quarrel with the Romans, but individually behaved so contemptuously towards
the Romans that certain persons ventured to pour down filth upon the Roman ambassadors
when passing by their house. For this and other offences, however, they soon paid
the penalty, for a considerable army was sent thither, and the city itself was
razed to the ground by Leucius Mummius; and the other countries as far as Macedonia
became subject to the Romans, different commanders being sent into different countries;
but the Sicyonians obtained
most of the Corinthian country.
Polybius, who speaks in a tone of pity of the events connected with the capture
of Corinth, goes on to speak of the disregard shown by the army for the works
of art and votive offerings; for he says that he was present and saw paintings
that had been flung to the ground and saw the soldiers playing dice on these.
Among the paintings he names that of Dionysus by Aristeides, to which, according
to some writers, the saying, "Nothing in comparison with the Dionysus," referred;
and also the painting of Heracles in torture in the robe of Deianeira. Now I have
not seen the latter, but I saw the Dionysus, a most beautiful work, on the walls
of the temple of Ceres in Rome; but when recently the temple was burned, the painting
perished with it. And I may almost say that the most and best of the other dedicatory
offerings at Rome came from there; and the cities in the neighborhood of Rome
also obtained some; for Mummius, being magnanimous rather than fond of art, as
they say, readily shared with those who asked. And when Leucullus built the Temple
of Good Fortune and a portico, he asked Mummius for the use of the statues which
he had, saying that he would adorn the temple with them until the dedication and
then give them back. However, he did not give them back, but dedicated them to
the goddess, and then bade Mummius to take them away if he wished. But Mummius
took it lightly, for he cared nothing about them, so that he gained more repute
than the man who dedicated them. Now after Corinth had remained deserted for a
long time, it was restored again, because of its favorable position, by the deified
Caesar, who colonized it with people that belonged for the most part to the freedmen
class. And when these were removing the ruins and at the same time digging open
the graves, they found numbers of terra-cotta reliefs, and also many bronze vessels.
And since they admired the workmanship they left no grave unransacked; so that,
well supplied with such things and disposing of them at a high price, they filled
Rome with Corinthian "mortuaries," for thus they called the things taken from
the graves, and in particular the earthenware. Now at the outset the earthenware
was very highly prized, like the bronzes of Corinthian workmanship, but later
they ceased to care much for them, since the supply of earthen vessels failed
and most of them were not even well executed. The city of the Corinthians, then,
was always great and wealthy, and it was well equipped with men skilled both in
the affairs of state and in the craftsman's arts; for both here and in Sicyon
the arts of painting and modelling and all such arts of the craftsman flourished
most. The city had territory, however, that was not very fertile, but rifted and
rough; and from this fact all have called Corinth "beetling," and use the proverb,
"Corinth is both beetle-browed and full of hollows." Source unknown (Strabo 8.6.23)
ΚΡΟΜΜΥΩΝ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΚΟΡΙΝΘΙΑ
Την εποχή του Στράβωνα ήταν κώμη της Κορινθίας, ενώ παλιότερα ανήκε στη Μεγαρίδα (Στρ. 8,6,22).
ΛΕΧΑΙΟΝ (Αρχαίο λιμάνι) ΚΟΡΙΝΘΙΑ
Λιμάνι της Κορινθίας, την εποχή του Στράβωνα είχε λίγα σπίτια (Στράβων 8,6,22).
ΝΕΜΕΑ (Αρχαίο ιερό) ΚΟΡΙΝΘΙΑ
And here too, between Cleonae and Phlius, are Nemea and the sacred precinct in which the Argives are wont to celebrate the Nemean Games, and the scene of the myth of the Nemean lion, and the village Bembina.
ΟΙΝΟΗ (Αρχαίο φρούριο) ΛΟΥΤΡΑΚΙ ΠΕΡΑΧΩΡΑΣ
Ο Στράβων την αναφέρει ως οχυρό των Κορινθίων (Στρ. 8,6,22).
ΟΡΝΕΙΑΙ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΝΕΜΕΑ
Ο Στράβων υποστηρίζει ότι η πόλη Ορνεαί που αναφέρει ο Ομηρος είναι άλλη από τις Ορνεές που γνωρίζει ο ίδιος και οι οποίες βρίσκονταν ανάμεσα στην Κόρινθο και τη Σικυώνα (Στράβων 8,6,17).
Orneae is named after the river that flows past it. It is deserted now, although
formerly it was well peopled, and had a temple of Priapus that was held in honor;
and it was from Orneae that the Euphronius who composed the Priapeia calls the
god "Priapus the Orneatan." Orneae is situated above the plain of the Sicyonians,
but the country was possessed by the Argives.
(Strabo 8.6.24)
ΣΙΚΥΩΝ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΚΟΡΙΝΘΙΑ
Ο Στράβων αναφέρει ότι στη Σικυώνα, όπως και στην Κόρινθο, άνθιζαν η ζωγραφική, η γλυπτική και όλες οι σχετικές τέχνες (Στρ. 8,6,23). Αναφέρει, επίσης, ότι παλιά η Σικυώνα λεγόταν Μηκώνη και ακόμη παλιότερα Αιγιαλούς (Στρ. 8,6,25).
ΤΕΝΕΑ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΚΟΡΙΝΘΙΑ
Tenea, also, is in Corinthia,
and in it is a temple of the Teneatan Apollo; and it is said that most of the
colonists who accompanied Archias, the leader of the colonists to Syracuse,
set out from there, and that afterwards Tenea prospered more than the other settlements,
and finally even had a government of its own, and, revolting from the Corinthians,
joined the Romans, and endured after the destruction of Corinth.
And mention is also made of an oracle that was given to a certain man from Asia,
who enquired whether it was better to change his home to Corinth:
"Blest is Corinth,
but Tenea for me."
But in ignorance some pervert this as follows: "but Tegea
for me!" And it is said that Polybus reared Oedipus here. And it seems, also,
that there is a kinship between the peoples of Tenedos
and Tenea, through Tennes the son of Cycnus, as Aristotle says; and the similarity
in the worship of Apollo among the two peoples affords strong indications of such
kinship. (Strabo 8.6.22)
ΦΕΝΕΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΦΕΝΕΟΣ
Τον καιρό του Στράβωνα δεν υπήρχαν παρά μόνο ίχνη της πόλης (8,8,2).
ΦΛΙΑΣΙΑ (Αρχαία περιοχή) ΠΕΛΟΠΟΝΝΗΣΟΣ
Araethyrea is the country which is now called Phliasia; and near the mountain
Celossa it had a city of the same name as the country; but the inhabitants later
emigrated from here, and at a distance of thirty stadia founded a city which they
called Phlius. A part of the mountain Celossa is Mt. Carneates, whence the Asopus
takes its beginning--the river that flows past Sicyonia,
and forms the Asopian country,
which is a part of Sicyonia.
There is also an Asopus that
flows past Thebes and Plataea
and Tanagra, and there is
another (Asopus) in the Trachinian
Heracleia that flows past a village which they call Parasopii, and there is
a fourth in Paros. (Strabo
8.6.24)
ΦΛΙΟΥΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΝΕΜΕΑ
Σύμφωνα με το Στράβωνα, η καινούρια πόλη Φλιούντας χτίστηκε σε απόσταση τριάντα σταδίων από την παλιά, που ονομαζόταν Φλιασία, όπως και η χώρα (Στράβων, 8,6,24).
ΓΟΝΟΕΣΣΑ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΞΥΛΟΚΑΣΤΡΟ
Σύμφωνα με τον Παυσανία η Γονούσσα και η Δονούσσα ήταν η ίδια πόλη. Εξηγούσε τα δύο ονόματα αποδίδοντας το Γονούσσα σε λάθος αντιγραφή των Ομηρικών Επών από τον Πεισίστρατο (Παυσ. 7,26,13).
ΚΟΡΙΝΘΟΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΠΕΛΟΠΟΝΝΗΣΟΣ
