It is cited by Herodotus as one of the cities—together with Lipaxus, Lisaea, Gigonus, Campsa, Smila, Aeneia—located in the vicinity of the Thermaic Gulf, in a region called Crusis near the peninsula of Pallene, where Xerxes recruited troops in his expedition of the year 480 BCE against Greece.[1]
Its site is unlocated.[2]
