ΑΚΥΦΑΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΠΑΡΝΑΣΣΙΔΑ
Pindus (Pindos), one of the towns of the tetrapolis of Doris, situated
upon a river of the same name, which flows into the Cephissus near Lilaea. It
was also called Akuphas, as we learn from Strabo and from Theopompus (ap. Steph.
B. s. v. Akuphas). In one passage Strabo says that Pindus lay above Erineus, and
in another he places it in the district of Oetaea; it is, therefore, probable
that the town stood in the upper part of the valley, near the sources of the river
in the mountain. (Strab. ix. pp. 427, 434; Scymn. Ch. 591; Schol, ad Pind. Pyth.
i. 121; Mel. ii. 3 ; Plin. iv. 7. s. 13; Leake, Northern Greece, vol. ii. p. 92.)
