Pogon. A name given to the harbour of Troezen from its shape, being
formed by a curved strip of land which resembled a beard (pogon): hence arose
the proverbial joke, pleuseias eis Troizena, which was addressed to those whose
chins were but scantily provided. Herodotus says that the Greek ships were ordered
to assemble there prior to the battle of Salamis.
