ELINA (Ancient city) THESPROTIA
A port in Epeiros near Arpitsa. The top of a steep hill is fortified
by a strong circuit wall ca. 1900 m long, and further fortifications descend to
the side of Arilla Bay, which has a sandy beach suitable for small craft. There
are remains of house foundations, a temple, and probably a theater. The harbor
is well sited for trade with Kerkyra and with coastal shipping.
