ΔΥΣΠΟΝΤΙΟΝ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΠΥΡΓΟΣ
Duspontion: Eth. Duspontieus. An ancient town, in the territory of Pisa, said
to have been founded by a son of Oenomaus, is described by Strabo as situated
in the plain on the road from Elis to Olympia. It lay north of the Alpheius, not
far from the sea, and probably near the modern Skaphidi. Being destroyed by the
Eleians in their war with the Pisatae, its inhabitants removed to Apollonia and
Epidamnus.
