ΤΑΝΑΓΡΑ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΒΟΙΩΤΙΑ
Υπάρχουν δύο παραδόσεις σχετικά με το θαλάσσιο τέρας Τρίτωνα. Η πρώτη έλεγε πως επιτέθηκε στις γυναίκες που είχαν πάει στη θάλασσα για τον καθαρμό πριν τις ιεροπραξίες για το Διόνυσο, αλλά ο Διόνυσος τις έσωσε νικώντας τον Τρίτωνα σε αγώνα. Σύμφωνα με τη δεύτερη παράδοση ο Τρίτων επιτίθονταν στα ζώα που πήγαιναν στη θάλασσα, καθώς και στα μικρά πλοία. Οι Ταναγραίοι κατάφεραν να τον μεθύσουν αφήνοντάς του ένα κρατήρα γεμάτο κρασί για να πιει κι όταν, μεθυσμένος πια, κοιμήθηκε, κάποιος του έκοψε το κεφάλι, γι' αυτό και παντού παριστάνεται ακέφαλος (Παυσ. 9,20,4).

ΕΛΕΩΝ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΒΟΙΩΤΙΑ
Bacis (Bakis), seems to have been originally only a common noun derived from bazein
to speak, and to have signified any prophet or speaker. In later times, however,
Bacis was regarded as a proper noun, and the ancients distinguish several seers
of this name.
1. The Boeotian, the most celebrated of them, was believed to have lived and given
his oracles at Heleon in Boeotia, being inspired by the nymphs of the Corycian
cave. His oracles were held in high esteem, and, from the specimens we still possess
in Herodotus and Pausanias, we see that, like the Delphic oracles, they were composed
in hexameter verse. (Paus. iv. 27.2, ix. 17.4, x. 12.6, 14.3, 32.6; Herod. viii.
20, 77, ix. 43; Aristoph. Pax, 1009 with the Schol., Equit. 123, Av. 907) From
these passages it seems evident, that in Boeotia Bacis was regarded as an ancient
prophet, of whose oracles there existed a collection made either by himself or
by others, similar to the Sibylline books at Rome; and, in fact, Cicero (de Divin.
i. 18), Aelian (V.H. xii. 25), Tzetzes (ad Lycoph,. 1278), and other writers,
mention this Bacis always as a being of the same class with the Sibyls.
