Location information

Gephyreis

GEFYREI (Ancient demos) ATTIKI
The ancient deme was located near Iera Odos at the point where it crossed Cephisus river. There, there was a bridge, from which the Athenians crossed after their return from celebrating the Eleusinian Mysteries at Eleusis.

Pelekes

PILIKES (Ancient demos) EGALEO
Belonging to the tribe of Leontis, it was probably situated to the north of Athens, on the west side of Aegaleo and more spesifically in the area between Aegaleo and Parnitha mountain. It consisted "tricomia" along with the demes of Cropiae and Euporides.

Gephyra

GEFYREI (Ancient demos) ATTIKI
  Gephyra (Gephura, Gephureis), a place in Attica at the bridge over the Cephissus, on the sacred road from Athens to Eleusis, where the initiated assailed passengers with vulgar abuse and raillery, hence called psephurismoi. (Strab. ix. p. 404; Suid. s. v. Gephurizon; Hesych. s. v. Gephuristai.)

Peleces

PILIKES (Ancient demos) EGALEO
Peleces (Pelekes), three demi forming a community, as trikomol (Steph. B. s. v. Eurupidai), and probably, therefore, adjacent. If the reading in Thucydides (ii. 19) is correct, dia Kropeias, these demi should be placed in the north of the Athenian plain, but many editors read dia Kekropias. Stuart, who has been followed by most modern writers, was led, by similarity of name, to place Peleces at the modern Belikas, near Marusi; but Ross maintains that the name of this Albanian village has no connexion with Peleces.
