MITROPOLIS (Ancient city) AKTIO - VONITSA
Lygovitzi. A town in the interior of Acarnania, S. of Stratus, and
on the road from the latter place to Conope in Aetolia. At a later time it fell
into the hands of the Aetolians, but was taken and burned by Philip in his expedition
against the Aetolians, B.C. 219. It is mentioned as one of the towns of Acarnania,
in a Greek inscription found at Actium, the date of which is probably prior to
the time of Augustus.
