LYKEA (Ancient city) ARCADIA
...There was another Lycoa
not far from the Alpheius, near its junction with the Lusius or Gortynius, at
the foot of Mt. Lycaeus.It has been conjectured that the proper name of the latter
of these towns was Lycaea, since Pausanias (viii. 27. § 4) speaks of the Lycaeatae
(Lukaiatai) as a people in the district of Cynuria, and Stephanus mentions a town
Lycaea (Lukaia). (Leake, Morea, vol. ii. p. 304.)
