IPPOLA (Ancient city) ITYLO
Eth. Hippolaites, fern Hippolaitis. A town of Laconia, a little north-west
of the promontory of Taenarum, in ruins in the time of Pausanias. It contained
a temple of Athena Hippolaitis. It stood either at Kipula, which is apparently
a corruption of the ancient name, or at the ruins called kastron tes horaias on
the highest point of the peninsula of Kavo Grosso.
