ΑΤΑΛΑΝΤΗ (Νησί) ΦΘΙΩΤΙΔΑ
Atalanta (Atalante: Eth. Atalantaios.) (Talandonisi), a small island
off Locris, in the Opuntian gulf, said to have been torn asunder from the mainland
by an earthquake. In the first year of the Peloponnesian war it was fortified
by the Athenians for the purpose of checking the Locrians in their attacks upon
Euboea. In the sixth year of the war a part of the Athenian works was destroyed
by a great inundation of the sea. (Strab. i. p. 61, ix. pp. 395, 425; Thuc. ii.
