The Geography of Strabo, Volume 2 (of 3)

Note 392 — Chapter II

W. (William) Falconer translation

The ruins are situated at a short distance south of Kardhitza. The site of Cierium, the modern village Mataranga, was first discovered by Leake, who identifies it with Arne, and supposes, with much probability, that the name Arne may have been disused by the Thessalian conquerors, because it was of Bœotian origin, and that the new appellation may have been taken from the neighbouring river Curalius or Cuarius.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
