Delphi. Its ruins have been explored by Chandler, Leake, and Ulrichs.

of Delphi were Tithorea, now Yelitza, to the N.W., and Lycorea, now 
Liakura, to the N.E. Its rocks above Delphi were called the Phsedriades 
or " Resplendent."

from the chapel of that saint which stands close to its source. 
^ Now the Mavro-Potamo. 
s Its ruins are still to be seen about three leagues from Kastri. 
^ Or Crisso. It was situate inland to the S.W. of Delphi. Its ruins 
are to be seen at a short distance from the modem village of Chryso. 
7 It is supposed that the few ruins seen near the modern Aspra Spitia 
are those of this place. It was famous for its hellebore, which was ex-

Djesphina.

Acropohs are still to be seen. It was the chief town of the Locri 
Ozolse. 
Pouqueville thinks that the ruins seen near Moulki are those of Ti- 
throne, and that Tritea stood on the site of the present Turcochorion. 
12 Or Amphrysus, famous for the strength of its fortifications and its 
scarlet berries for dyeing. Some remains of it are to be seen at the 
modem village of Dhistomo. 
1' On the frontiers of Doris and Phocis. Leake thinks that its ruins 
are those seen midway between Kamares and Glamista. Dauhs was also 
the name of an ancient town of Phocis, the ruins of which are to be seen 
at the modem village of Dhavha. 
Probably the present Palseo Kastro, at the Port de Dobrena or Polaca.

sented by the modern Khosia.
