There are some remains of the JaopoUs of Acropolis 
Orchomenus : a part of the walls and of the mfnls. 
mural turrets are still visible. The village of 
Screpu consists, besides the monastery, only of 
a few Greek cottages ; but the condition of the condition 
peasants is favourable : their bread is good ; sent"inh!-iT 
and their olives afford them a delicious food, 
whether fresh or salted. It cannot, however, 
be a healthy place of residence in the summer, 
because the land is universally swampy, and 
contains pools of stagnant water. The children superst?. 
wear small stones about their necks, which are 
found here, and are superstitiously regarded: 
for their parents would not allow them to be 
sold, or even taken off to be examined. Of this 
tion re- 
specting 
certain 
stones.
