MESSINI (Ancient city) ITHOMI
City at foot of Ithome, founded by Epaminondas, seized by Demetrius, son of Philip, seized by Nabis, its strong walls.
They determined next, according to the tradition, to divide their host into three parts, and to establish three States,--Argos, Messene and Lacedaemon.
Messene comes after Triphylia; and there is a cape which is common to both; and after this cape come Cyparissia and Coryphasium. Above Coryphasium and the sea, at a distance of seven stadia, lies a mountain, Aegaleum.
